University-Business Forum

ASEM Universities and Business/Industry Forum  

At the first ASEM Education Ministerial Conference 2008 in Berlin the Ministers agreed

"to propose the establishment of a bi-regional forum involving stakeholders from the education and economic sectors to strengthen the dialogue and cooperation between education and industry at local, national and international levels. A regular exchange of experience on how to promote knowledge, skills, and competences relevant to the labour market could thus be established”.
