The three major domestic venture start-up-related academic societies, including the Korea Venture Start-up Association, chaired by Professor Lee Woo-jin of the Business Administration Department at Kookmin University, will hold their first integrated academic conference this year.

 

The Korea Venture Start-up Association, the largest academic society in the field of venture start-ups, will hold its spring integrated academic conference on the 26th at the Seoul Startup Hub Gongdeok with the Korea Start-up Association (Chairman Choi Ja-young) and the Entrepreneurship Society (Chairman Park Sang-moon).

 

Earlier last month, the three presidents of the academic societies signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to strengthen cooperation between entrepreneurship-related academics and industries, and to promote cooperation in academic research, policy proposals, development of educational programs, and joint hosting of academic conferences for the sustainability and innovation of the entrepreneurship ecosystem.

 

This conference will discuss in depth cooperation and convergence strategies in the field of entrepreneurship under the theme of the 'Startup Ecosystem in the Big Blur Era,' in which traditional boundaries are breaking down and convergence between industry, technology, and academia is accelerating.

 

The keynote speech will be given by Kim Jong-yoon, CEO of Yanolja. Kim, along with Park Young-hoon, CEO of the Bank of Korea Youth Startup Foundation, and Kim Yong-soo, CEO of Kigle, will be selected as the winners of the Startup Grand Prize and will share their strategies and achievements to lead the leap forward of the domestic startup ecosystem. In addition, Cho Min-sik, chairman of the Korea Angel Investment Association, and Chun Hye-sung, chairman of the Early-Stage Investment Accelerator Association, and Kim Sun-woo, Ph.D. of STEPI (Science and Technology Policy Institute), will deliver keynote speeches.

 

Lee Woo-jin, president of the Korea Venture Entrepreneurship Association (professor at Kookmin University), said, “It will add depth to domestic research on entrepreneurship and serve as an opportunity to expand field-oriented empirical research and policy recommendations.” He added, “I hope that it will serve as a stepping stone for the entrepreneurship community to make a substantial contribution to the growth of startups, the creation of innovation by entrepreneurs, and the realization of value.”
