Previously, Baemin launched its startup support activities last year by establishing Baemin Startup Square in the 2nd Pangyo Techno Valley. Baemin has provided part of this space rent-free for 10 years to professional organizations that support investments, legal affairs, and networking for startups, thereby offering a stable platform for startups to grow.

During the event, 38 representatives of overseas startups participated in sessions where Baemin's growth story and key insights were shared. Kim Eunhye, the Head of Operations for Baemin Startup Square at Woowa Brothers, stated, "Baemin, which started with a capital of 30 million won, has achieved textbook growth for startups by continuously strengthening its competitiveness, even under fierce market conditions." She added, "We aim to become an irreplaceable delivery platform through continuous innovation, never settling for the status quo."

During the subsequent tour, participants were introduced to the 80-seat conference hall, which can host large-scale events, as well as the open spaces and lounges designed to facilitate free networking among resident startups.

Kim Jooyeon, Head of Corporate Strategy at Woowa Brothers, commented, "We will continue to make efforts to contribute to the development of a vibrant startup environment in Korea through active public-private cooperation."
