The Global Startup Center has served as a hub supporting foreign entrepreneurs since its opening, with around 7,000 global founders from more than 100 countries visiting and utilizing the center in just one year. This year, the center newly established the ‘Industry Workshop’ to support the practical business execution of foreign entrepreneurs.

The first session focused on crowdfunding, and Wadiz oversaw the entire process from program planning to lectures and hands-on training. The workshop was attended by about 30 foreign founders from 18 countries, including India, France, Indonesia, and the United Kingdom.

The program was designed to enable foreign entrepreneurs to use crowdfunding as a means of entering the Korean market. Participants carried out practical exercises designing project introductions, rewards, and pricing, based on successful cases of international makers. After the workshop, Wadiz plans to provide follow-up support, such as project director (PD) matching and consulting for platform onboarding, to teams wishing to launch a funding campaign, ensuring a seamless connection through to actual project launches.

A Wadiz representative said, “Beginning with this collaboration with the Global Startup Center, we will continue to expand partnerships and support programs to help global founders enter the Korean market more easily.”
