The nation’s research and development management systems will be exported to developing countries.

The Korea Institute of Science and Technology Evaluation and Planning (KISTEP) said Monday that it has signed a related agreement with the International Science, Technology and Innovation Center (ISTIC), which supports science and technology projects in developing countries.

Under the agreement, the institute will provide developing countries with education and consultation for R&D planning, evaluation and management systems over the next five years.

The two sides will first select 20 member countries of the international organization to partake in courses in Seoul in November related to innovation in science and technology.
