Software education platform company Gurum announced on May 27 that it signed an MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) online with Kathmandu University (KU) in Nepal to accelerate global education cooperation and technological innovation.
This agreement was promoted after the welcoming ceremony held by Gurum on February 6th last year. At the time, KU's Dean of Computer Science Manish Pokharel and Professor of Mathematics Binod Pant attended and expressed their expectations for exchanges between the two institutions.
Through this MOU, the two organizations agreed to closely cooperate in the expansion of technology-based education solutions and educational opportunities. KU will serve as a global testbed for Goorm’s representative products, goormDEVTH, goormIDE, goormEDU, and goormEXP, and will cooperate in product evaluation and improvement using students and faculty. KU will also support the expansion of Goorm’s global partnerships by utilizing its international partnership network with Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT Hyderabad, IIT Madras, etc.).
Cloud is pursuing this agreement as part of its strategy to enter the Asian education market, and plans to expand the hands-on learning environment by providing KU students with opportunities to participate in coding tests, product use, and joint programs. The two organizations will also host joint events such as hackathons and boot camps to contribute to the revitalization of the developer ecosystem in Nepal and South Asia.
“Starting with our collaboration with Kathmandu University, we will begin to expand our business across Asia, including India,” said Kwak Kyung-joo, Senior Vice President of Cloud. “We will enhance our international competitiveness through technology-based education innovation and strengthening global partnerships.”
