Gint (CEO Yong-Hyeon Kim) , an agricultural digital transformation technology company, has been selected as a beneficiary of the 'TSE Asia Startup Hub' hosted by the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE).
The TSE Asia Startup Hub is a program operated by the Japanese government and the Tokyo Stock Exchange to support promising Asian startups entering the Japanese market. Each year, the program selects beneficiaries from startups that have established or are seeking to do so in Japan. Working with 56 partner organizations, including securities firms, accounting firms, venture capital firms, banks, and media companies, the program provides support for business development, fundraising, and IPO (Initial Public Offering) preparation.
Gint was selected for the first time this year, and was highly recognized for its cutting-edge technology-based agricultural innovation capabilities, including precision agriculture and regionally tailored smart farm technology. In its introduction to the beneficiary company, TSE highlighted Gint's technological capabilities and potential for collaboration in the Japanese agricultural market, expressing its anticipation for future technological partnerships with local companies.
Gint fully entered the Japanese market in 2024 with the launch of its autonomous agricultural machinery solution, Pluva Auto. Currently, it has established a local subsidiary in Sapporo and is expanding its business into various areas, including agricultural machinery distribution and customized agricultural solutions. Furthermore, it is developing technologies such as AI-based crop management programs, pesticide robots, and electric tractors, and is pursuing the commercialization of solutions that address global agricultural challenges, such as labor shortages and climate change.
Kim Yong-hyun, CEO of Gint, said, “Gint’s core direction is to increase efficiency and sustainability in agricultural fields through data, AI, and robotics technologies,” and added, “We will use this selection as the TSE Asia Startup Hub to strengthen our position in the Japanese market and establish a bridgehead for global agricultural innovation.”
