The student startup team FranJoy from Chosun University of Science and Technology has been finally selected for the Ministry of Education-hosted '2023 Student Promising Startup Teams 300' and will be nurtured as a practical startup team.

'2023 Student Promising Startup Teams 300' is hosted by the Ministry of Education and organized by the National Research Foundation of Korea and the Korea Youth Entrepreneurship Foundation, supporting through the Leap Track, Growth Track, and Education Track categories.

The item of FranJoy, a student startup team from the Franchise Startup Management Department at Chosun University of Science and Technology, is a "Franchise Sales Revitalization Healing Platform" under the theme "Korea's Franchises Are Sick."

With this Growth Track selection, FranJoy will receive support such as practical training and 1:1 mentoring, as well as customized education for basic startup and business advancement.
