Domestic conversational AI company Lapichi (CEO Beomseok Oh) announced on the 16th that it was finally selected as the first 'Innovation Premier 1000' company hosted by the government and the Financial Services Commission.
The Innovation Premier 1000 is a support program for small and medium-sized enterprises jointly promoted by the Financial Services Commission, the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, the Ministry of Science and ICT, and the Ministry of SMEs and Startups. It is a system that selects promising companies in industrial fields according to the 'Joint Standards for Innovation Growth' and supports them with customized financial and non-financial programs such as ▲investment attraction programs ▲technology management consulting ▲overseas expansion partnerships ▲exclusive financial products.
Each ministry first selects promising companies in their respective industrial fields, and the Financial Services Commission comprehensively evaluates the following items: ▲Research and development infrastructure ▲Research and development capabilities ▲Corporate growth potential ▲Business viability and marketability of the industry in which they operate.
Rapichi has been selected as a promising company in the artificial intelligence (AI) field by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and will receive support until December 2026.
Rapichi’s Vice President Oh Beom-geun said, “I believe that being selected as one of the Innovation Premier 1000 is a very meaningful achievement in that it means that our technological prowess and growth potential have been officially recognized by the government and the Financial Services Commission.” He added, “We plan to actively utilize the various programs supported by the Financial Services Commission to expand our contact points with domestic and foreign investors and to expand the company’s capabilities.”
Rapichi has been steadily increasing its share in the domestic private market by launching its conversational AI integrated platform 'ConvAI'. It is showing growth potential by promoting the expansion of AI services into the public and welfare sectors through the Public Procurement Service's pilot purchase project. Rapichi, which was listed on KONEX in 2021, completed investment attraction of approximately KRW 6 billion last year and is also working on R&D to launch new products such as ▲'RiLACC' (sLLM-based AI callbot platform), ▲'Basso' (Document Loader), ▲LLM-based subscription AICC platform, and ▲AI callbot service exclusively for the visually impaired.
