Welcome to the Indo-Korea Science and Technology Center (IKST).
Established in 2010, IKST was founded as a “Global Knowledge Platform (GKP), where the core competencies of nations are synergized to address global challenges through collaborative R&D.” Over the past 15 years, IKST 1.0 has built a strong foundation and established itself as an on-site computational laboratory for materials science, with growing research excellence and impact.
As we approach our 20th anniversary, IKST is preparing for a new leap forward: IKST 2.0, a multifunctional cooperation platform building on the legacy of IKST 1.0. Our R&D will focus on mission-oriented, multilateral collaboration in areas of strategic importance to India and Korea. IKST 2.0 will serve as a hub for talent exchange, a bridge for technology localization, and a platform for advancing bilateral science and technology cooperation.
Thank you.
