LIVE EVENT
South Korea's leading science and technology institute, closely tied to the country's electronics and semiconductor industry.
The Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology was established to build national research capacity in science and engineering, and remains South Korea's foremost technical institution.
Its research aligns closely with the industries that define the Korean economy: semiconductors, displays, batteries, robotics, and telecommunications.
KAIST is located in Daedeok Innopolis, a large research cluster in Daejeon containing government research institutes and corporate laboratories.
Korean government policy has actively promoted startup formation, and KAIST's entrepreneurship programmes have expanded correspondingly.
KAIST graduates populate the research and engineering functions of Korea's major electronics groups, and increasingly found companies in semiconductors, robotics, biotechnology, and materials. Government support has raised startup formation rates substantially.
Korean venture capital includes Korea Investment Partners and SoftBank Ventures Asia, supported by substantial government funding programmes and corporate venture arms attached to the country's major industrial groups.
GCN’s global network includes millions of startups and founders and a broad community of investors, creating opportunities to discover potential connections across university communities.
