This move is set to significantly boost AI transformation (AX) for \uad6d\ub0b4 \uc18c\uc7ac companies and accelerate \ud601\uc2e0 in \uc0b0\uc5c5\uc6a9 \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac. The company will specifically collaborate with UK-based AI startup CuspAI to streamline the \ubc1c\uad74 and \uc0c1\uc6a9\ud654 \uacfc\uc815 for new materials.<\/p>\n<p>The AI Materials Foundry is a global \uc5f0\ud569 of companies and \uc5f0\uad6c institutions specializing in AI, \ud654\ud559, \uc18c\uc7ac \uacfc\ud559, and computing \uae30\ubc18, dedicated to leveraging AI for breakthroughs in \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac \uac1c\ubc1c. It currently comprises 48 global entities, including Nvidia, Meta, and AMD, alongside prominent materials companies such as 3M and Merck. Utilizing CuspAI&#x27;s Agentic AI platform, the alliance provides the necessary \uae30\ubc18 for the \uc804\uccb4 \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac \uac1c\ubc1c lifecycle, from \uc124\uacc4 and \ubc1c\uad74 to \uac80\uc99d and \uc0c1\uc6a9\ud654. Its objective is to drastically reduce the \ube44\uc6a9 and \uc2dc\uac04 involved in \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac \uac1c\ubc1c by integrating high-quality experimental data, research networks, and computing \uae30\ubc18 from its participating members.<\/p>\n<h2>CuspAI&#x27;s Agentic AI Platform: Powering Innovation<\/h2>\n<p>Headquartered in London, CuspAI is an \ud601\uc2e0\uc801 startup that combines \uc778\uacf5\uc9c0\ub2a5 with \uc18c\uc7ac \uacfc\ud559 to accelerate the \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac \uac1c\ubc1c \uacfc\uc815. The company has developed a platform that uses AI to \uc124\uacc4 and explore optimized \uc2e0\ubb3c\uc9c8. Its advisory board includes Geoffrey Hinton, a 2024 Nobel laureate in Physics. CuspAI recently secured approximately $450 million (680 billion won) in \ud22c\uc790, with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos as a key \ud22c\uc790\uc790, valuing the company at about $3 billion (4 trillion won).<\/p>\n<p>LG CNS plans to utilize CuspAI&#x27;s Agentic AI platform to \uc9c0\uc6d0 companies pursuing \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac \ubc1c\uad74 across \ucca8\ub2e8 \uc0b0\uc5c5, including \ubc18\ub3c4\uccb4, \ud654\ud559, and energy. The platform functions by allowing users to input desired \uc870\uac74 and properties for a \uc18c\uc7ac, such as compounds with excellent \uc5f4\uc548\uc815\uc131 or highly efficient \ud0c4\uc18c \ud3ec\uc9d1 substances. Based on extensive experimental data trained by AI, the platform then generates and \uac80\uc99d numerous candidate materials. For instance, Finnish \ud654\ud559 company Kemira successfully used this platform to \ub2e8\ucd95 a \uac1c\ubc1c period that would typically take years down to just six months, exploring 300 trillion molecular structures to identify 20 new material candidates.<\/p>\n<h2>Supporting Domestic Manufacturing and Materials Firms, Enhancing IP Protection<\/h2>\n<p>As a platform delivery partner, LG CNS will actively \uc9c0\uc6d0 South Korean \uc81c\uc870 and \uc18c\uc7ac companies in developing \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac by leveraging the global \uc5f0\uad6c \uc0dd\ud0dc\uacc4, without the need for them to directly \ud22c\uc790 in expensive research equipment or extensive AI \uae30\ubc18. LG CNS will handle \uc804\uccb4 aspects, from materials data processing and \uac80\uc99d result interpretation to platform operation and maintenance. This comprehensive \uc9c0\uc6d0 allows client companies to conduct \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac \uac1c\ubc1c \uc0ac\uc5c5 continuously without requiring dedicated AI personnel.<\/p>\n<p>Crucially, the CuspAI platform incorporates robust safeguards to \ubcf4\ud638 against \uae30\uc220 \uc720\ucd9c and \uc9c0\uc2dd\uc7ac\uc0b0\uad8c infringement, which are paramount concerns for \uc18c\uc7ac companies. Client data is \uaca9\ub9ac and managed on \uc804\uc6a9 servers, ensuring it is not reused for AI model training. Furthermore, the platform clearly stipulates that the client companies retain \uc18c\uc720\uad8c of any \ud2b9\ud5c8 related to \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac, thereby securely \ubcf4\ud638 their \ud575\uc2ec \uc790\uc0b0. In \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac \uac1c\ubc1c, where the \ubc1c\uad74 of even a single \uc18c\uc7ac can dictate the \uc18d\ub3c4 of \uc0b0\uc5c5 \ud601\uc2e0, AI-driven \uac00\uc18d\ud654 of \uac1c\ubc1c \uc2dc\uac04 will be a \ud575\uc2ec factor for \uae30\uc5c5 \uacbd\uc7c1\ub825.<\/p>\n<p>Jang Min-yong, Vice President of LG CNS&#x27;s \ud654\ud559\/Battery \uc0ac\uc5c5 Unit, stated, &#x27;Improving \ube44\uc6a9 and \uc2dc\uac04 efficiency in \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac \uac1c\ubc1c is directly linked to a company&#x27;s \ud575\uc2ec \uacbd\uc7c1\ub825.&#x27; He emphasized that in an era where AI is no longer optional but essential, LG CNS will fulfill its \uc5ed\ud560 as an AX partner, enabling \uad6d\ub0b4 \uc81c\uc870 and \uc18c\uc7ac companies to leverage a world-class AI-based \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac \uc5f0\uad6c \uc0dd\ud0dc\uacc4 to achieve tangible \uc870\uae30 \uc0ac\uc5c5 \uc131\uacfc.<\/p>\n<div class=\"kstories-terms-box\" style=\"margin:32px 0 20px;padding:22px 24px;border:1px solid #e3e8f0;border-radius:16px;background:#f8fbff;line-height:1.9\">\n<div style=\"font-size:1.15em;font-weight:700;margin-bottom:12px\">\uc774 \uae30\uc0ac\uc5d0 \uc0ac\uc6a9\ub41c \ud55c\uad6d\uc5b4 \uc6a9\uc5b4<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-size:1em\">new material development(\uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac \uac1c\ubc1c), support(\uc9c0\uc6d0), innovation(\ud601\uc2e0), discovery(\ubc1c\uad74), role(\uc5ed\ud560), ecosystem(\uc0dd\ud0dc\uacc4), domestic(\uad6d\ub0b4), materials(\uc18c\uc7ac), industrial new materials(\uc0b0\uc5c5\uc6a9 \uc2e0\uc18c\uc7ac), commercialization process(\uc0c1\uc6a9\ud654 \uacfc\uc815), alliance(\uc5f0\ud569), research(\uc5f0\uad6c), chemistry(\ud654\ud559), materials science(\uc18c\uc7ac \uacfc\ud559), infrastructure(\uae30\ubc18), entire(\uc804\uccb4), design(\uc124\uacc4), validation(\uac80\uc99d), commercialization(\uc0c1\uc6a9\ud654), cost(\ube44\uc6a9), time(\uc2dc\uac04), innovative(\ud601\uc2e0\uc801), artificial intelligence(\uc778\uacf5\uc9c0\ub2a5), process(\uacfc\uc815), novel substances(\uc2e0\ubb3c\uc9c8), investment(\ud22c\uc790), investor(\ud22c\uc790\uc790), advanced industries(\ucca8\ub2e8 \uc0b0\uc5c5), semiconductors(\ubc18\ub3c4\uccb4), conditions(\uc870\uac74), thermal stability(\uc5f4\uc548\uc815\uc131), carbon capture(\ud0c4\uc18c \ud3ec\uc9d1), shorten(\ub2e8\ucd95), development(\uac1c\ubc1c), manufacturing(\uc81c\uc870), development projects(\uac1c\ubc1c \uc0ac\uc5c5), protect(\ubcf4\ud638), technology leakage(\uae30\uc220 \uc720\ucd9c), intellectual property(\uc9c0\uc2dd\uc7ac\uc0b0\uad8c), isolated(\uaca9\ub9ac), dedicated(\uc804\uc6a9), ownership(\uc18c\uc720\uad8c), patents(\ud2b9\ud5c8), core assets(\ud575\uc2ec \uc790\uc0b0), pace(\uc18d\ub3c4), industrial innovation(\uc0b0\uc5c5 \ud601\uc2e0), acceleration(\uac00\uc18d\ud654), development time(\uac1c\ubc1c \uc2dc\uac04), core competitiveness(\ud575\uc2ec \uacbd\uc7c1\ub825), corporate competitiveness(\uae30\uc5c5 \uacbd\uc7c1\ub825), business(\uc0ac\uc5c5), early(\uc870\uae30), business results(\uc0ac\uc5c5 \uc131\uacfc)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"kstories-variant-link\" style=\"margin:18px 0 6px;text-align:right\"><a href=\"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/en\/tec260727002-en\/\" style=\"padding:10px 18px;border:1px solid #7c3aed;border-radius:14px;color:#7c3aed;font-weight:700;text-decoration:none;background:#fff\">English Version<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LG CNS Joins Global AI Materials Foundry as Founding Member to Accelerate AI Transformation for Domestic Industries LG CNS has&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"remote_featured_image_url":"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/ko\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/tec260727002_01.jpg","footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[1760,1758,1759,1761,1547,1763,1764,1762,1462,1765],"class_list":["post-1052","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tech-economy","tag-ai--","tag-ai-","tag-ax","tag-cuspai","tag-lg-cns","tag-1763","tag-1764","tag-1762","tag-1462","tag-1765"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/en-ko\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1052","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/en-ko\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/en-ko\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/en-ko\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/en-ko\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1052"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/en-ko\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1052\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1053,"href":"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/en-ko\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1052\/revisions\/1053"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/en-ko\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1052"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/en-ko\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1052"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kstories.kr\/en-ko\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1052"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
