More importantly however, not only will there be hundreds of Korean companies from Industry 4.0, but now attending are the pharma and life science companies which were all recipients of the billion dollar Korea Drug Development Fund (KDDF). KDDF recipient companies and university are leading Korean pharmaceutical research in the fields of oncology, hematology, immunology, respiratory, ophthalmology, CNS, cardiovascular, metabolic, gastrointestinal, and infectious diseases.
