Seven Korean startups participated in the Bootcamp, and six of them presented their IR decks and answered judges’ questions on the final pitch day. The event was created to help enterprising Korean startups connect with accelerators, mentors, businesses, etc., to support them to venture into the overseas market.

The startups were questioned about IT infrastructure, competition strategy, cost leverage, cybersecurity, partnerships, buyers, inventory sales, business scale, long-term vision, price strategy, etc. The judges also gave valuable insights to startups on their pitches, including more graphs, numbers, informatics, user experiences, details about the operating environment and risks, challenges in the crowded global market, and issues & possibilities.

The session’s topics included Building Local Community, Branding/Marketing, Sales & Distribution, Team Building, Building an IR deck, and a Final IR Pitch. The seven startups were divided into two groups as per their expansion aspirations to the USA and Southeast Asia (SEA) markets.

“I really enjoyed speaking to all of the mentors. They were super helpful, supportive, and gave us a lot of great insight not only in the US market but in general. It was great hearing their stories and what they did to achieve success with their startups,” is what Rachel Chung of BeAptive shared regarding her experience at the Bootcamp. Steve Yang of Apollo EduTech has similar sentiments, “It was a really great experience for me and my team. We enjoyed all the discussions, especially with Travis. Good to have other successful founders/operators share their stories from a founder perspective.”

The Seoul Global Startup Center was founded in July 2016 with funding provided by the Seoul Metropolitan Government and is jointly operated by startup accelerator N15 and WeWorkLabs Korea. As part of the 2021 SGSC Global Bootcamp, the accelerator will support three startups each targeting the US and South East Asia markets.

beSUCCESS Media group, a leading global startup media company in South Korea, designed the accelerator program in partnership with SGSC. KoreaTechDesk did the media coverage for the 2021 SGSC Global Boot Camp.
