Korea Quantum Computing (KQC, CEO Kim Jun-young) announced on July 10 that it signed a business agreement (MOU) with the Korea Institute of Ocean Science and Technology (KIOST, President Lee Hee-seung) at its Busan headquarters. The purpose of this agreement is to strengthen science and technology and digital-based growth engines by applying quantum computing technology to the field of ocean research.
The two organizations plan to cooperate in planning applied research projects such as developing quantum algorithms for predicting changes in the marine environment and ecosystem using ocean numerical modeling and AI, tracking and monitoring marine pollution, responding to climate change, and managing marine resources.
KIOST is conducting research on improving the accuracy of ocean forecasting and assessing the impact of the ocean environment by utilizing ocean numerical modeling and intelligent information technology, and KQC is leading the establishment of domestic quantum computing industry infrastructure and network development.
KIOST President Lee Hee-seung said, “Through this agreement, we expect to greatly enhance our research capabilities to accurately analyze and predict complex marine phenomena, including the development of high-resolution long-term simulations and ultra-precise pollutant diffusion prediction technologies.”
KQC Chairman Kwon Ji-hoon said, “We will contribute to the development of marine research based on quantum computing and AI technologies,” and “Through cooperation with KIOST, we will establish a technology foundation that will lead the future of the marine field.”
