The recent 10th Pan-Pan Day event at Pangyo Techno Valley marked a significant milestone in South Korea's innovation landscape, showcasing six startups with groundbreaking products and services aimed at the global market. Among the highlights were PetGround's body fat measurement device for pets and Pitch Interactive's platform for live e-sports broadcasts, demonstrating the diverse innovation thriving within Pangyo Techno Valley.
This event not only provided a stage for startups like Soft Landers and Piten to present their solutions but also facilitated crucial connections with venture capital firms such as Kyobo Life Insurance and Nautilus Investment. The inclusion of a special lecture by Sejin Kim, CEO of Beyond the Stage, on effective IR pitching strategies, added immense value, equipping startups with the knowledge to attract international investments.
Pangyo Techno Valley's role as a catalyst for innovation is underscored by its impressive statistics: 1,666 companies and 78,751 employees generating 167.7 trillion KRW in annual sales. The Valley's focus on IT, BT, CT, and NT sectors, combined with initiatives like the Pangyo Overseas Promotion Program, positions it as a key player in enhancing South Korea's competitiveness on the world stage.
The Gyeonggi-do Business & Science Accelerator (GBSA) further amplifies this impact through events like the Pangyo Evening Meet-Up and In-Best Pangyo, creating a dynamic ecosystem for startups. For more information on Pangyo Techno Valley's initiatives, visit https://www.pangyo.or.kr.
