Antonio Randazzo, German Chair of KGCCI and CEO of Star Truck Korea, and Katharina Viklenko, Representative of Germany Trade & Invest (GTAI) in Korea, recently shared insights in an Economy Chosun interview on Germany’s economic transformation and the growing significance of industrial AI and global collaboration.
They emphasized that the future of industrial AI will not be led by a single country, but developed through cooperation built on strong partnerships. Germany is strengthening its position in industrial AI through engineering excellence and advanced manufacturing capabilities, while Korea brings high complementarity through digital innovation, semiconductors, and rapid execution.
The interview also highlighted the importance of building joint ecosystems in key industries such as smart manufacturing, mobility, and energy systems, as well as the role of Ausbildung as a core element in developing future-ready talent.
The discussion underscores the strategic opportunity for Germany and Korea, amid global industrial transformation, to lead future industries together based on partnership rather than competition.
