Abstract

In recent times, the rise in technological convergence has been accompanied by a global increase in joint research efforts to outsource technology and R&D support. While global S&T joint research has mostly been centralized in the US and EU, such activities amongst Asian countries are nearly non-existent. In this setting, Korea and China have pursued international joint research efforts following the Korea-China Science and technology Cooperation Agreement signed in 1992. This paper will examine the current state of international cooperative research in Korea and China, and draw up several conclusions on their relationship as well as future recommendations for consideration.
