EU - South Korea Joint Researchers Forum on Semiconductor - ICOS Semiconductors

In June 2023, South Korea and the European Commission established the Korea-EU Digital Partnership to enhance cooperation and economic resilience in the digital realm.

As part of efforts to strengthen ties, both parties convened the inaugural South Korea-EU Semiconductor Researchers Forum in Brussels on March 25-26, 2024.
