Meetings with diplomatic representatives from successful countries are always of interest to KPI students and faculty. This is especially true for countries that are recognized leaders in technological development. So, when Park Ki-chang, the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Korea to Ukraine, delivered his lecture at the Smart Shelter of the Scientific and Technical Library on March 27, Kyiv Polytechnic Institute students listened with rapt attention. And no wonder: his presentation on the topic "Korea-Ukraine Partnership: Technology, Innovation and a Future We Build Together" was dedicated to the partnership between one of the world’s most advanced high-tech nations and Ukraine in fields that are today arguably decisive in ensuring the economic development of civilized countries.
