ETRI, KISTI, NIA, KETI,
etc.)
1st Phase
TargetTech.
• Identifying target tech.
at business and product
level
• Matching tech. to
technology demand
• Constructing DB for
target and matching tech
(GCC technical
information DB)
2nd Phase
MatchingTech.
• Selecting participate
company based on
matching technology
• Commercializing
business tech. in local
community
• Suggesting business
model
• Consulting service
