GTEP사업단, 영동와인연구회 산학협력업체와 협약
Cooperation agreement signed between JNU-GTEP and Yeongdong Wine Research Group

Jeju National University’s Global Trade Experts Incubating Program (JNU-GTEP) recently signed a memorandum of understanding with Gangwon-based wine businesses for industry-academy cooperation, the school announced on Saturday (July 3).

JNU-GTEP met with 11 businesses under the Yeongdong Wine Research Group on Friday at COEX, Seoul, and agreed to cooperate for incubating trade experts, increasing export volumes, and creating international market opportunities for partner businesses.

JNU-GTEP and the Yeongdong Wine Research Group attended the Seoul International Wines & Spirits Expo (SIWSE) 2021 for four days from July 2.

Small and medium exporters have striven to increase the volume of their exports over the past years. Despite their outstanding technologies, many of them have experienced difficulties creating international distribution channels due to the lack of trade experts.

Under the latest agreement, the JNU-GTEP will train talented students to build capabilities required for trade experts, so that the businesses can create more export opportunities with the young export leaders.

A JNU-GTEP official said that the small and medium-scale businesses will receive support for export consultation meetings held in Korea and overseas and for communication in foreign languages when looking for buyers and distribution channels in international markets.

JNU-GTEP will continue to discover and sign an MOU for support with other enthusiastic exports on Jeju Island, he added.
