Seeking Breakthroughs in the Next-Generation Battery Industry! DGIST Hosts the 4th Forum on the Latest R&D Trends in Secondary Batteries.

- Experts from industry, academia, research institutes, and young scientists gather to share the latest achievements and explore the future direction of next-generation batteries. - Building a foundation for cooperation to innovate the domestic battery industry and foster future talent.

□ DGIST (President Kunwoo Lee) will host the 4th Forum on the Latest Research and Development Trends in Secondary Batteries on Wednesday, August 20, and Thursday, August 21, at the Convention Hall of the DGIST Headquarters.

 

□ This Forum aims to bring together leading experts from industry, academia, and research institutions in Korea’s battery sector to discuss the development paths of next-generation battery technologies. The program consists of sessions on ▲cathode material development, ▲anode material development, ▲next-generation batteries, and ▲strategies for secondary battery recycling technologies, covering a broad range of key issues across the entire battery industry.

 

□ In particular, the Forum will feature discussions on both current commercial technologies and future-oriented innovations on the same stage, providing an intensive introduction to material breakthroughs and next-generation secondary battery research achievements that address both near-term and long-term prospects.

 

□ Professor Seung-tae Hong of DGIST’s Department of Energy Engineering remarked, “By presenting and discussing cutting-edge research at the forefront of the national secondary battery industry, alongside achievements that look further into the future, this forum carries significant meaning as we collectively explore the future direction of Korea’s secondary battery research and industry.”

 

□ Meanwhile, DGIST plans to leverage this Forum to strengthen research collaboration with UNIST and POSTECH, to lead national strategies and industrial development in the next-generation battery field while actively contributing to the cultivation of related talent.
