Korea Maritime and Ocean University signs MOU with International Ocean Film Festival

Korea Maritime and Ocean University and the International Ocean Film Festival Organizing Committee signed a memorandum of understanding Tuesday to promote marine cultural content, develop future maritime talent and lay the groundwork for advancing the marine cultural industry.

Under the agreement, the two organizations will closely cooperate on providing university facilities and infrastructure for the film festival and related events, supporting university students and future maritime talent in participating in the festival, jointly developing and disseminating marine cultural content, and expanding cultural opportunities for the local community while linking social contribution activities.

The partnership is expected to help embed maritime culture more deeply in the university community and the broader region, while giving future maritime professionals greater exposure to diverse cultural content as they develop their careers.

"This agreement is an important leap forward in developing sustainable marine cultural content and nurturing future maritime talent," said Korea Maritime and Ocean University President Ryu Dong-geun. "We will spare no effort in actively supporting our students as they participate in a wide range of marine cultural activities and build their capabilities."
