Gyeonggi Housing and Urban Development Corporation (GH) is accepting applications from companies wishing to participate in the "2026 GH Basecamp" program until August 3.


The "GH Basecamp" is a program designed to support companies based in Pangyo that wish to expand overseas, by assisting them with investment attraction activities targeting global investors on-site in the United States.


The recruitment targets are advanced technology companies located in Pangyo Techno Valley 1 and 2, specializing in areas such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, mobility, and bio/health. GH will select a final cohort of five companies through a competitive review process.


The selected companies will be provided with airfare, accommodation, transportation costs, and opportunities to participate in local programs. To maximize their results, they will also complete a two-month preparatory program in Korea, which includes one-on-one coaching with global accelerators and the development of global strategies. From October 7 to 16, the companies will visit Silicon Valley in the United States to hold investor relations (IR) presentations for global investment firms.

Notably, this year’s program includes participation in "TechCrunch Disrupt 2026," a major global conference held in San Francisco. Participating companies will have the opportunity not only to present at investor meetings but also to establish global networks and secure investment opportunities tailored to their target markets.


Kim Yongjin, President of GH, stated, "I hope that participating companies will grow into influential innovators in the global market, based on diverse investment attraction activities and close collaboration with global investors. GH will continue to serve as a solid stepping stone so that Pangyo Techno Valley can emerge as a global business hub."



Meanwhile, since its launch in 2024, the "GH Basecamp" program has delivered significant results by helping participating companies realize their overseas expansion ambitions. Among the companies that took part in 2024 and 2025, those in the bio/health sector attracted Series A investments totaling approximately 9.2 billion won, while those in the AI sector secured Series B investments worth about 32 billion won. In addition, some companies have laid the groundwork for global market entry by pursuing collaborations and proof-of-concept (PoC) projects with international home appliance, retail, and media corporations.
