InnoCORE
It fosters core research personnel (Core) who lead innovation in high-tech fields.
A Program to
Cultivate Core Research Talent Driving Technological Innovation
What is InnoCORE
InnoCORE, a combination of “Innovation” and “Core,” is a national strategic program
designed to cultivate core research talent that will drive innovation in AI+S&T and national strategic technologies.
Beyond a conventional research support program, InnoCORE places top-tier postdoctoral researchers at the center,
empowering them to lead research within a Co-Lab environment —collaborative, multi-mentor, and interdisciplinary—
across InnoCORE Research Centers.
Through this approach, the program fosters ambitious and creative research, accelerates innovation
in strategic technology fields, and promotes the broader impact of research outcomes across industry and the economy.
Why InnoCORE
Amid intensifying global competition in strategic technologies, a shift toward a
postdoc-centered research ecosystem is essential to drive advanced interdisciplinary research.
InnoCORE attracts and supports world-class postdoctoral researchers while establishing a
Co-Lab collaboration model based on multi-mentor engagement across academia, research institutes, and industry
within InnoCORE Research Centers.
Through this structure, the program promotes the generation of innovative research outcomes,
strengthens national competitiveness in strategic technologies, and contributes to both global talent attraction
and the mitigation of brain drain.
