New Delhi, November 06, 2024 - The Circle: Founders Club (The Circle FC) a business accelerator for growth-stage startups announces the Korea Market Immersion Program (KMIP), offering Indian entrepreneurs a chance to explore South Korea's dynamic startup ecosystem. The program is open for growth-stage startups in AI, Deeptech, Fintech, SaaS, Sustainability, and Mobility, providing a unique opportunity to engage with one of the world's fastest-growing innovation hubs.
The Korea Market Immersion Program will include a delegation to Seoul, from 9th December to 14th December 2024. Participants will experience South Korea's vibrant startup culture and build connections through a series of activities fostering cross-border collaborations. The delegates will attend COMEUP 2024, Korea's largest startup event, which attracts over 180,000 attendees, including 2,000+ startups and 300+ investors from across the world. The theme of the conference is "A World Driven by Startups," highlighting innovative solutions to global challenges.
As the startup ecosystem in Asia flourishes, Indian entrepreneurs are increasingly looking to expand beyond their borders to tap into new opportunities, partnerships, and customer bases. South Korea, with its thriving economy, advanced technology infrastructure, and innovation-driven market, is emerging as a natural fit for Indian startups seeking growth in Asia. The newly launched Korea Market Immersion Initiative aims to bridge this opportunity gap, offering Indian startups an effective pathway to explore, understand, and engage with the South Korean market.
Building on the success of the Korea Startup Center (KSC) program in India, where The Circle FC has collaborated with KISED and JBCCEI to support over 55 Korean startups, this initiative now aims to mirror that process for Indian startups entering South Korea. By leveraging an established network, local expertise, and proven strategies, the program maximizes the chances of successful market entry for Indian startups.
Founders will get the opportunity to participate in B2B meetings with investors and corporates, visit leading innovation hubs, and meet with Korean accelerators, incubators, and government representatives. The program also includes the Indo-Korea Ecosystem Meetup, an event designed to connect Indian and Korean entrepreneurs, fostering partnerships between the two countries' startup communities.
Speaking about the program, Nemesisa Ujjain, VP & Head of The Circle FC, said, "For Indian startups, the Korea Market Immersion Initiative represents a strategic opportunity to expand their footprint across Asia. This initiative not only supports business growth but also strengthens the ties between two major Asian economies, fostering greater collaboration and innovation across the region."
With its world-class infrastructure, tech-savvy consumer base, and strong government support for startups, South Korea offers excellent opportunities for Indian founders. Additionally, South Korea's strategic position in the Asia-Pacific region makes it an ideal entry point to markets in Japan, China, and other ASEAN countries.
