GTFI moves with a clear vision, three missions, and four core values.
GTFI strives to be a trusted research institute that pursues both academic rigor and policy relevance — not measured by the weight of reports, but by the real change we create in decision-making across Korea and the world.
We answer the real questions facing governments and industries, offering concrete alternatives through reports, working papers, and policy briefs.
We reduce information asymmetry across government, industry, academia, and the international community, building a platform for collaboration.
We nurture the next generation of researchers with rigorous methodology and global perspective, sustaining the future of inquiry.
With independence at the center, rigor, global engagement, and bridging reinforce one another.
