Activity and Financial Report on 2017 AEARU Workshop on R&D Policy and Asian Research Universities on the theme of “Responsible Innovation for Inclusive Growth in the Era of Global Inequality” Hosted by KAIST Graduate School of Science and Technology Policy on November 3rd (Fri.) - 4th (Sat.), 2017 in Daejeon, Seoul and Sejong in Republic of Korea 1 1. Summary: 1) Name: 2017 AEARU Workshop on R&D Policy and Asian Research Universities 2) Hosted by: Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) Graduate School of Science and Technology Policy (STP) 3) Theme: “Responsible Innovation for Inclusive Growth in the Era of Global Inequality” 4) Date: November 3rd (Fri.) – 4th (Sat.) 2017 5) Venue: KAIST Main Campus (Daejeon) Korea Institute of Science and Technology (Seoul) Science and Technology Policy Institute (Sejong) 6) Overview: Asia, home to the world’s largest and fastest-growing economies, has also seen the steepest rise in inequality over the last two decades. With the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) projected to bring not only benefits but socioeconomic risks (including job replacement and human alienation due to automation technologies such as artificial intelligence and robots), Asia can take full advantage of 4IR opportunities only with the inclusive growth approach. This workshop has provided a great opportunity for faculty and students of Asian research universities to discuss how to promote responsible innovation in order to assure the benefits of research and development (R&D) to be spread over the whole society. 2 2.

Participated Faculty and Students: Professor So Young Kim Professor So Young Kim is the Chair of the Graduate School of Science & Technology Policy at KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology). She earned her Ph.D. and M.S. from Northwestern University with Fulbright Scholarship specializing in international political economy and mathematical methods in social sciences. Prof. Kim worked as a data archivist for the Social Science Computing Centre at the University of Chicago and taught as an assistant professor at Florida Atlantic University before joining KAIST. Her research deals with high-stake issues at the interface of S&T and public policy such as government R&D funding and evaluation, basic science policy, science advising, science & engineering workforce, science-based ODA, and global governance of emerging technologies. Her scholarly work includes publications in International Organization, Journal of Asian Survey, Science and Public Policy, and STI Policy Review as well as the edited volume of Science and Technology Policy: Theories and Issues. Prof. Kim conducted large-scale science policy projects including Identification of Strategic Research Areas in Basic Research (funded by the National Research Foundation), Measuring Social Impacts of the Public R&D Programs (funded by the Korea Institute of S&T Evaluation and Planning), and the Kenya KAIST Feasibility Study (funded by Korea Eximbank). She is currently the editorial member for the East Asian Journal of Science, Technology, and Society and the program committee member of the biennial Atlanta Conference on Science and Innovation. As a public intellectual, Prof. Kim has served several governmental committees including the National Science & Technology Vision Committee, National R&D Evaluation Review Committee, Advisory Committee for the Science & Engineering Workforce Five-Year Plan, and Long-term Policy Planning Committee of the Korea Federation of Women’s S&T Associations (KOFWST). She also sits on the World Economic Forum’s Global Future Council on Technology, Values, and Public Policy as well as on the Expert Panel for the Public Understanding of Risk Institute of the National University of Singapore. 4 Professor Jae-Yong Choung Professor Jae-Yong Choung received his Ph.D. in Science and Technology Policy Studies from the University of Sussex (SPRU) in 1998.
