At ‘CES 2025’, 20 students participated through active support from the LINC 3.0 Project Group and the ‘Global PBL Program’, gaining opportunities to directly experience cutting-edge technology trends and develop a global perspective.
Additionally, through the ‘Acceleration Program’ for family companies, five companies were supported to successfully take the stage at CES.
One of the family companies, Ecopis Co., Ltd., received the CES 2025 Innovation Award in the smart city category for its groundbreaking robot ‘Healing Boa’, which applies autonomous driving technology to purify water pollution while providing water leisure activities. ‘Healing Boa’ was honored with the award for its differentiated technology that removes algae from water bodies through autonomous driving functions, enabling both environmental protection and relaxation.
