IOP Delegation Visits Korea Photonics Technology Institute to Advance Bilateral Scientific Cooperation
As part of its official working trip to South Korea, the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology (VAST) delegation paid a visit to the Korea Photonics Technology Institute (KOPTI)—a premier national research institute recognized for its cutting-edge contributions to the field of photonics and optical technologies.

The visit served as a significant milestone in the ongoing partnership between the two institutions. Building on a solid foundation of prior cooperation, the working session provided an opportunity for both sides to review the progress of joint research activities and explore new avenues for expanded collaboration.
At the meeting, representatives from VAST and KOPTI engaged in productive discussions focused on strengthening ties in key areas such as advanced photonics research, applied optical technologies, and technological commercialization. Both institutions emphasized the importance of fostering long-term, sustainable cooperation that could respond to the growing global demand for innovation in photonic science.
