Middle East-based global accelerator supports Korean startups’ global expansion

AGCC (Middle East-based global accelerator) announced that it held the 'UAE-Azerbaijan AI-Gaming Industry Forum' at Seoul Startup Hub Gongdeok on the 7th. Despite the short recruitment period, the forum received great interest and response with about 60 people applying.

This forum highlighted the startup ecosystem and market opportunities in the Middle East and Central Asia, and the organizers of the AGCC and the Game Summit exhibition in Azerbaijan attended to discuss the global expansion potential of the AI and gaming industries and explore various cooperation measures to support the overseas expansion of Korean startups.

This forum featured special lectures on the UAE and Central Asian AI and game markets, an explanation session on the Seoul Economic Promotion Agency (SBA) global expansion program, and a networking session, and participating companies had the opportunity to gain insight into advancing into the Middle East and Central Asia and build practical partnerships.

AGCC is the official global expansion partner of the SBA Seoul Startup Hub, and is implementing various support measures such as overseas proof of concept (PoC) linkage for Korean startups to advance into the Middle East.

AGCC Korea CEO Jeong-Hyeon Jeon said, “Last year, we supported the entry of about 50 companies into the Middle East, and based on visible results such as global investment attraction and PoC contracts, we will further solidify our support for domestic companies entering the Middle East. In addition, we will accelerate expansion into global markets such as Central Asia and Europe together with local partners such as the Game Summit in Azerbaijan. We plan to continue to cooperate with various domestic partners such as SBA to fully support the global growth of startups.”
