The Korea International Trade Association(KITA) is organizing Korea’s first private Startup Testbed Initiative in collaboration with 4 major companies: WTC Seoul (Infrastructure & facilities), COEX (Conventions & Exhibitions), COEX Aquarium, and CALT(City Airport). This pioneering initiative, titled “COEX Testbed” will support startups in conducting real-world field trials for their technology in COEX.

COEX is commonly associated with a vast land of entertainment and business complex at the heart of Seoul, including convention & exhibition facilities, underground shopping malls, office buildings, and a city airport. However, it actually takes more than one brand name to describe the immensity of business opportunities created through this platform.

The COEX Testbed Initiative will prove beneficial for startups in expanding their reach and accessibility to potential consumers. COEX hosts over 2,500 international events and is visited by over 30 million tourists and business travellers every year, which makes it the best platform for startups to test out their technology to assess and improve the results of real consumer engagement.

 Startups can experiment technology with consumers real-time

Startups can explore various verticals on a wide spectrum of test platform run by each company. With WTC Seoul, which manages infrastructure and facilities in COEX, startups can test indoor navigation services, smart office management systems, parking systems, interactive ads and any tech-based store promotion. At the convention & exhibition halls in COEX, startups can examine their big data analysis technology, digital marketing for exhibitions, and visitor registration & business matching tools by interacting with real users. The large COEX aquarium can help startups try out their AR/VR solutions for visitor experience, smart visual promotion tools and any other public entertainment-related technology. The CALT (City Airport) can help startup experiment with limousine technology tools, logistic management and travel visitor data management systems.

The application for the Testbed is open worldwide and any startup with creative solutions that can enhance the customer experience across the COEX platform can participate.

The deadline for the application is August 12, 2019, and startups can apply using the link: https://bit.ly/312AtKy
