Hanlab, an AI automation firm based at Innopolis Daedeok in the central city of Daejeon, has become a subsidiary of Evolution Metals & Technologies (EMAT) Corp., which debuted on the Nasdaq last month. This marks the first time a research institute from a state research and development cluster has advanced through the Nasdaq market.
