PRESIDENT HONG SOUNG-MO OF KOREA
Publisher Acknowledgement
Greetings! On behalf of more than three million inventors across Republic of Korea and as a long
cherished member in the invention industry, I am more than happy to announce the new foundation of
Korea Invention News. The newly established Korea Invention News would provide an enormous
opportunity of new levitations for inventors and their surrounding communities world-wide.
It was slight of a pity that Korea, the nation known as the 4th element of industrial property of patents
world-wide did not have a single page of “invention newspaper” representing the proud inventors around
the world. Therefore, as an inventor winding down close to a 40-year career, I was very pleased to
publish the first invention newspaper ever existed in the country.
As many of us already recognized, the 21st century is the era of inventions and innovations. National
competitiveness arises from both individual and business inventors and entrepreneurs meaning that only
the nations focused on developing new inventions and products are ought to become the leaders of the
modern and future generations. This is the common reason why Korea as well as all other developed
countries around the world devotes all effort on promoting inventions to succeed in the world-wide
industry.
Realizing how late we were on giving birth to Korea Invention News at this time definitely stimulates us
to enthusiastically promote businesses in order to open up the era of inventions. At the same time, we
will proactively engage in protecting all rights and privileges of inventors.
Namely speaking, Korea Invention News is willing to become a newspaper that serves both for the best
interest and hope for all inventors world-wide. Given with our opportunity, we will be always on top of
our duty to be a trustworthy partner of yours truly.
We will represent inventors by becoming a reasonable advisor as well as responsible leader for inventors
and innovators. We ask for your kind attention and interest on our progress to success.
Thank you.
