AMCHAM Council on Innovation for the Future (ACIF)

In recent years, innovation has been identified as a key driver of economic growth and job creation in both the United States and Korea. In October 2012, AMCHAM leaders and a group of senior executives representing leading U.S. companies in Korea launched the new AMCHAM Council on Innovation for the Future (ACIF) with the aim of promoting innovation and new business opportunities in Korea.


The Mission of the AMCHAM Council on Innovation for the Future

The AMCHAM Council on Innovation for the Future will provide innovative ideas that help improve Korea’s private and public sectors and enhance opportunities for further collaboration between the Korean and U.S. business communities through best practice sharing and proactive outreach.

To accomplish this mission, the Council focuses on
Identifying win-win strategies for forming new partnerships between U.S. and Korean companies
Inviting key speakers from both countries who are innovation leaders in their fields in order to identify ways in which innovation can be further promoted in Korea
Discussing pro-innovation policies the Korean Government can adopt to promote innovation in diverse sectors
Promoting Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) focused on fostering innovative studies in Korean universities and other activities.
More information on the Council can be found in the AMCHAM press release on April 2, 2015. Please click here:
