[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heeyoon] The Ministry of SMEs and Startups and the Korea Institute of Startup & Entrepreneurship Development announced on the 19th that they are recruiting startup companies to participate in a global pitching competition. This event aims to support domestic startups in promoting their startup items by participating in pitching competitions at global startup events and facilitating exchanges with multinational stakeholders.

This year, support will be provided for participation in pitching competitions at Portugal's Web Summit, Singapore's SWITCH, and Dubai's GITEX. A total of 45 companies will be recruited, and selected startups will be offered a pitching academy in collaboration with the global accelerator SparkLabs to prepare for winning the pitching competition. Previously, in 2019, the domestic startup Mandro, supported by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups and the Korea Institute of Startup & Entrepreneurship Development, won first place in the social impact category at GITEX Future Stars 2019 held in Dubai, UAE.

Detailed information about the global pitching competition can be found in the ‘Global Pitching Competition Guidebook’ published by the Korea Institute of Startup & Entrepreneurship Development in March.
