Korea Startup Forum (hereinafter referred to as KOSPO) announced on the 13th that it will hold 'Comeup 2025' jointly with the Korea Venture Business Association and the Korea Venture Capital Association from December 10th to 12th at COEX in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
On the 12th, COSPO held the 'Come Up 2025' advisory committee kickoff meeting at Maru 180 in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and reviewed the performance of last year's event and discussed this year's event operation plan and program direction.
'Comeup 2025' will be operated with a focus on strengthening the international status and expanding the cooperation system with the global startup ecosystem. This year's event aims to expand the participation of various startups and global influence, and is co-hosted by major startup ecosystem organizations such as KOSPO, the Korea Venture Business Association, and the Korea Venture Capital Association. This event, which aims to be a 'Global Nexus', is expected to become a place where major players in the global startup ecosystem connect beyond exhibitions and pitching.
In particular, through national and regional target strategies, we will pursue a detailed global linkage plan that broadly covers not only major markets such as Asia, North America, and Europe, but also emerging markets such as Africa, India, and South America. The invitation target will not be limited to investors and startups, but will also be expanded to include governments, support organizations, global companies, and large and medium-sized venture companies, providing opportunities for international networking and business cooperation.
The 'Comeup 2025' advisory committee consists of 46 members, and Han Sang-woo, chairman of KOSPO, serves as the chairman. The advisory committee consists of heads of startup and venture industry associations and organizations, global and large corporations, and startup representatives, and they work in various fields such as conferences, startups, investment, open innovation, and public relations. Key members include Ryu Joong-hee, CEO of RLWRLD, Son Jae-kwon, CEO of The Milk, Lee Han-bin, CEO of Seoul Robotics, Cho Min-sik, chairman of the Korea Angel Investment Association, and Kim Kyung-hoon, president of Google Korea.
Han Sang-woo, chairman of COSP, said, “Entrepreneurship and innovation are the key to the growth of Korean industries and strengthening competitiveness,” and “ComeUp will go beyond a simple startup event and become a global platform that promotes the startup ecosystem and the value of innovation to the world.” He added, “This year, we will see the domestic startup ecosystem take a leap forward by expanding the participation of innovative companies and strengthening investment and business connections.”
