Jeonbuk Innovation Center, 27 companies recruited for the 2025 preliminary startup package

The Jeonbuk Creative Economy Innovation Center (CEO Kang Young-jae, hereinafter referred to as the Jeonbuk Innovation Center) announced that it is recruiting participants for the '2025 Startup Package' for prospective entrepreneurs who dream of starting a business.

This preliminary startup package is structured in a step-by-step support method, with the first step providing business start-up funds of up to 20 million won, and additional funds of up to 40 million won differentially supported through separate evaluation.

For selected prospective entrepreneurs, we provide customized entrepreneurship programs for each business item, including support for commercialization funds, mentoring with entrepreneurship experts, entrepreneurship education, and support for childcare spaces.

The Jeonbuk Innovation Center is the only preparatory startup package management organization in the Jeonbuk Special Self-Governing Province, and is discovering and fostering future growth engines for the province, focusing on green bio, climate tech, advanced new materials, and finance (fintech, AI).

In particular, Jeonbuk Innovation Center has been selected as a TIPS operator and is contributing to the activation of the early investment ecosystem in the Jeonbuk region. It plans to attract investment and provide follow-up support, such as seed investment using its own investment resources and opportunities to participate in the TIPS program.

CEO Kang Young-jae said, “We will spare no effort in providing full support so that aspiring entrepreneurs can grow into leading companies in the province using the Jeonbuk Innovation Center’s aspiring entrepreneur package as a stepping stone.”

Applications for the preliminary startup package business can be submitted through the K-Startup startup support portal until March 12.
