Korean and Japanese business communities have decided to set up a joint steering committee to determine the direction of the Future Partnership Fund.
The Federation of Korean Industries (FKI) and the Japan Business Federation (Keidanren) held a press conference on the progress of the Korea-Japan Future Partnership Fund at Keidanren Hall in Tokyo on May 10 as a follow-up to the announcement of the fund.
“The Federation of Korean Industries and the Japan Business Federation have agreed to establish a joint steering committee to determine the future direction and specific business content of the Korea-Japan Future Partnership Fund,” said Kim Byung-jun, acting chairman of the FKI. “The chairmen of the two organizations will serve as co-chairmen of the joint steering committee.”
As for the fund’s business direction, the two organizations will prioritize jointly promoting future generation exchanges and strengthening industrial cooperation, and will hold the Korea-Japan Industrial Cooperation Forum in Seoul in July.
