Seoul, Korea South, 25th Feb 2025 – Korea Institute of Startup & Entrepreneurship Development (KISED) announced its participation in MWC 2025, scheduled from March 3 to 6 at Fira Gran Via in Barcelona, Spain. KISED aims to actively promote Korea’s startup ecosystem and government programs tailored for global startups at the event.
KISED is building a startup-friendly environment in South Korea, welcoming talented entrepreneurs from around the world. It helps foreign startups set up their businesses in Korea and provides key support through programs like the K-Startup Grand Challenge, Global Startup Center, commercialization assistance, and startup visas for those with strong technology and business ideas.
The K-Startup Grand Challenge is an acceleration program that aids global startups in thriving in Korea by providing essential support such as mentorship, workspace, and funding.
Concurrently, the Global Startup Center offers foreign entrepreneurs valuable resources and networking opportunities to integrate into the Korean business community.
Additionally, the Non-Korean Commercialization Program provides financial assistance to help startups develop their products and enter the market more smoothly.
For visa support, KISED runs the OASIS program, which helps foreign entrepreneurs get startup visas by guiding them through key steps like setting up a company and handling paperwork. In addition, the newly introduced ‘Startup Korea Special Visa’ makes it easier to get a visa by reducing strict requirements and focusing more on a startup’s business potential and innovation. This program helps international founders settle in Korea more easily and focus on growing their businesses.
At MWC 2025, KISED will engage with global entrepreneurs, investors, and industry leaders to introduce South Korea as a prime destination for startups. Through presentations, networking sessions, and discussions, KISED will highlight the country’s strong government support, advanced technology infrastructure, and thriving business ecosystem, which make Korea an attractive hub for innovative companies looking to expand in Asia.
