KOTRA connects you to
Korea’s most promising startups!
At KOTRA, we’re all about fostering newly emerging
startups in Korea. That’s why we’re connecting promising
businesses with foreign partners so that they develop
strong and long-lasting networks. Here are just
some of the exciting things that we’re doing to promote
Korea's startups.
Summits
KOTRA selects innovative firms in Korea to provide
assistance in their foreign market entry and invites
promising VCs to Korea. We’re expanding opportunities
for foreign VCs and potential investors to learn
more about Korean startups by offering consulting
services for investors in startup showcase events. We
also hold IR pitching sessions to attract investment.
Conferences
KOTRA also encourages Korean startups to join the
Korean Pavilion in global startup conferences. We aim
to strengthen capacity of Korean startups by increasing
their global recognition and helping them establish
industry networks and grasp global trends.
Accelerators
KOTRA also connects Chinese accelerators (entities
that offer resources and mentoring programs to foster
rapid growth of startups) to government-supported
Korean startups that plan to go global. We provide
them with work spaces and the right tools to help them
successfully enter the local market. On that note, we
signed MOUs with major Chinese accelerators such as
K-Techcode, Galaxy Incubator in Huaqiangbei and
Cocoon Networks to benefit Korean startups. We are
joining hands to develop startup mentoring programs
that include tailored strategies.
