Photonics 2010
is the concept of visional project for achieving a goal to be
the best five in the world photonics market till 2010 under
the slogan of ¡°Korea creating
the light¡± Now the level of Korean photonics
industry is the 10th grade in the world and is in the underdeveloped
stage.
It is in the status of importer of photonics rather than active
exporter due to the lack of industrial concept.
However, it prepares the leading position of photonics industry
country through the development of business programs of the
1st stage(2000¡2003) and the 2nd stage(2004¡2010) based on the
cultivation, integration, research and expansion of photonics
industry, and its goals in the 1st stage are to make industrial
integration, complex construction and seek the establishment
of technical self-support foundation, lead to the growth of
small and medium industries, enhance the position of photonics
industry into the greatest world photonics complex in the Northeast
Asia and be the best five of photonics industry in the world
based on the independent technical development. |

for supporting move-in of photonics related industries (complex
for companies leased)
Purchase of Site: Dec. 29, 1999
Construction starts in the second half of 2000 by completing
the basic plan and design of
construction during the first half of
2000 by considering the demands of companies which
are to move in.
- The scale of 90.75~151.25§³ area per company is rent. Rent
is US$7.6/§³ a year and venture is for US$1.52/§³ a year.
Kwangju-Chonnam Techno-park and small and medium industrial
complex are located in
connection with integrated complex and
pilot optical communication network is established
within advanced complex to test the
optical products |
