The newly selected ‘VR/AR Startup Specialized Pre-Startup Support Program’ will recruit pre-startup entrepreneurs in the content field from April 5 to April 26, select 10 teams, and support them with a startup incubation program including startup education, dedicated mentors, business model (BM) advancement, and MVP production until the end of November.
Professor Lee Hyun-dong of the Department of Computer Engineering, the project leader, stated, “Through support for pre-startup entrepreneurs centered on content, which is Dongseo University’s specialized field, we will strive to develop the regional content industry and create settlement-type jobs.”
