[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] The Korea Venture Business Association announced on the 28th that despite the difficult economic conditions caused by the global spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), it is carrying out various support activities to help domestic venture companies enter overseas markets.

As part of this effort, negotiations were held with BELAUS, the chair company of the French branch of the International Network of Korean Entrepreneurs (INKE), an overseas branch organization of the Korea Venture Business Association, to enable Dow Korea's air sterilizer to enter the European market, and an export contract was signed the day before yesterday.

Dow Korea's air sterilizer (DP100) was developed for disinfection and sterilization inside 119 ambulance vehicles. First installed in 2016 in the Daegu Fire Department's ambulances, it is currently installed in about 300 ambulances, playing a role in preventing bacterial and viral infections among 119 paramedics and transported patients.

A Dow Korea official said, "The new product (DP3000), developed for disinfection and sterilization of multi-use facilities, is installed in hospitals and nursing facilities such as Pohang Medical Center, contributing to the creation of a safe hospital room and treatment environment. Installation requests are rapidly increasing not only from companies but also from stores used by unspecified many."

A representative of the Korea Venture Business Association stated, "Through various INKE projects such as entry into global large distribution networks and global market entry platforms, we will enhance the overseas marketing capabilities of venture companies and serve as a growth ladder to enable continuous growth."
