At the first-ever Open Innovation Demo Day event, Pulmuone set up booths and organized a mini exhibition as a pre-event, allowing attendees to get an overview of the key technologies of startups. During the main event, representatives from the five startups selected as finalists presented the innovative achievements they had accomplished through collaboration with Pulmuone.

The startups participating in the Pulmuone Open Innovation Demo Day included GS F System, which possesses power-saving smart farm technology; Core Dot Today, a developer of AI collaboration platforms; Eloi Lab, specializing in AI hyperspectral quality control; WeMeat, a company developing alternative raw meat using mushrooms; and MyBenefit, a specialist in AI-based personalized healthcare platforms.

Pulmuone plans to compile the judging results from the Demo Day and announce the grand prize and excellence teams later. The grand prize team will receive a 10 million KRW innovation encouragement reward, and the excellence teams will receive 5 million KRW each.
