韓 전략기술분야 기술동맹…”인도·태평양 국가들과 확대해야”
헤럴드경제=구본혁 기자] 신안보시대에 맞춰, ‘인도-태평양 전략’에 따른 ‘소다자협의체’ 기반의 새로운 과학기술혁신의 협력구도가 필요하다는 주장이 나왔다 과학기술정책연구원(STEPI)은 28일 앰버서더 서울 풀만 호텔서 개원 37주년 기념, ‘2024 STEPI 글로벌 심포지엄’을 개최했다. ‘과학기술과 안보: 인도-태평양 전략의 부상과 대응’을 주제로 진행되는 이번 글로벌 심포지엄은 인도-태평양 전략을 수립한 국가들의 전략기술 협력방안과 신안보 개념에 대해 논의를 통해 국가 안보 기여 또는 위협에 대한 과학기술의 역할 변화를 모색했다.
