DAEJEON, South Korea—Daejeon City is set to host the "12th Daejeon Innovative Technology Exchange (DITEC)" on the 11th at the Unicorn Lounge, 20th floor of the Shinsegae Expo Tower. This iteration of the technology exchange will focus intensely on business scale-up and global market strategies under the theme, "From Financing to Market Expansion, and the Strategy for Going Global."

The event is designed to equip local technology firms with the knowledge and connections necessary to secure investment and successfully navigate the complexities of international expansion, a critical step for companies hitting growth limits in the domestic market.

Focus on Global Strategies and Case Studies 

The first part of the exchange, the presentation session, features key insights from both global investment experts and successful local enterprises:

Global Innovation Infrastructure: Mr. Hughbin Kang, CEO of Blue Tide Capital, a venture capital firm based in Singapore, will deliver a presentation on strategies for leveraging Singapore's robust global innovation infrastructure to accelerate corporate growth and secure international funding.
Local Success Stories: Two Daejeon-based robotics companies will share their achievements and internationalization journeys. Mr. Gijung Kwon, CEO of Narma Co., Ltd., and Mr. Dongwoo Kang, CEO of The Robotics Co., Ltd., will present their respective robot development accomplishments and provide detailed case studies on their successful forays into overseas markets.
The second part of the event will transition into a panel discussion, allowing presenters and attendees to engage in a deeper dive into the topics raised, fostering direct interaction and detailed strategic discussions.

City Emphasizes Need for International Growth 

Choi Won-hyeok, Director-General of the Daejeon City Corporate Support Bureau, highlighted the necessity of global vision for local businesses. “Once a company reaches a certain growth stage, domestic markets alone present a limit to continued scaling. It is essential to consider overseas expansion,” Choi stated. “We hope that many people interested in the international expansion of local companies will attend this event to gain valuable information and insights.”

The event is open to any interested citizen. Registration can be completed via the Naver Form link (https://naver.me/GDLB25n2) or by scanning the QR code on the official poster.
