Event Title:
KOREA AS A KNOWLEDGE ECONOMY: EVOLUTIONARY PROCESS AND LESSONS LEARNED
Date: 12/13/2007 - 12/13/2007
The dissemination seminar on "Korea as a Knowledge Economy: Evolutionary Process and Lessons Learned" was held at World Bank Headquarters on December 13, 2007 to discuss a new book on Korea. The book is one of a number of joint products between the Korea Development Institute (KDI) and the Knowledge for Development (K4D) Program of the World Bank Institute.

Korea has achieved knowledge based growth by investing heavily in education and training, boosting innovation through intensive research and development, and developing a modern and accessible information infrastructure, all coupled with a stable economic and conducive institutional regime that enabled the knowledge-related investments to flourish. Korea’s successful transition to a knowledge economy, that is, an economy that uses knowledge as the key engine of growth, offers many valuable lessons for developing economies.
