According to AI TIMES, President Lee Jae-myung will make a state visit to France from Sept. 6 to 9, hold a summit with President Macron, and move to expand cooperation in advanced industries, including AI. During the visit, a business roundtable involving more than 20 companies from the two countries will also be held, with concrete ways to advance joint research and development and corporate cooperation set to be a key agenda item. Building on the two countries' upgraded ties, they are seeking to connect the scope of cooperation, from security and the economy to science and technology, culture, and people-to-people exchanges, to actual projects and institutional arrangements. In particular, attention is focused on ways to combine strengths in areas such as AI, space, nuclear power, and biotech, where competition and complementarity coexist. Discussions on the film and video industries will also run in parallel, with plans to further expand the intersection of technology and content. The government expects the visit to serve as an opportunity to broaden the stage for cooperation into Europe and global markets.
Perspective
The core of this schedule lies not in a diplomatic event, but in turning advanced technology cooperation into an industrial strategy. If multiple fields are handled together around AI, the chances increase that research and development, commercialization, and overseas expansion will move in a connected way rather than separately. If cultural cooperation is also linked in, the ripple effect could extend beyond a partnership focused solely on technology. In the end, this meeting can be seen as a test of whether cooperation with Europe will remain at the level of declarations or lead to concrete joint projects and market expansion.
