(MENAFN- The Peninsula) Chairperson of Qatar Foundation for Education, Science and Community Development H H Sheikha Moza bint Nasser has met with the President of the Innopolis Foundation Cha-dong Kim. They discussed avenues of cooperation with Qatar Science and Technology Park (QSTP).
QSTP and Innopolis Foundation are focused on establishing a cooperative framework that would promote and facilitate technology commercialisation including technology transfer and start-up support between both institutions.
After the meeting, Sheikha Moza visited the Seoul Namsung Elementary School, where she interacted with students and teachers to observe and share best practices in teaching and learning.
