The event, attended by 25 export tech companies, consisted of ▲Innovation Fair ▲Technology Pitching ▲Network Reception.

The 'Innovation Fair' reflected the current technology trends in Silicon Valley and featured 25 export tech companies across four digital device sectors: ▲Artificial Intelligence ▲Mobility ▲Semiconductors ▲AR·VR. Notably, a participating company producing industrial high-pressure gases such as semiconductors achieved results including signing a nitrous oxide (N2O) trading contract with a local buyer.

Next, 14 companies participated in the 'Technology Pitching.' Technologies introduced included analyzing breathing sounds via smartphones to assess disease severity and autonomous robot solutions for efficient operation of e-commerce logistics, which received great responses.

Finally, the 'Network Reception' was attended by about 200 buyers and investors, including local big tech companies such as Google and Apple, as well as our participating companies, exploring new opportunities for Korea-US partnerships.

As announced by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy at the 2nd Public-Private Joint Export Expansion Meeting on the 8th of last month, KOTRA will accelerate the operation of the 'K-Tech Camp' to support the overseas expansion of export tech companies, starting with this event. The K-Tech Camp is a comprehensive hub that strengthens the use of KOTRA trade office spaces to support the overseas expansion of Korean export tech companies. The K-Tech Camp will gradually expand from Silicon Valley to other regions worldwide with developed startup ecosystems, such as Paris.

Yoo Jung-yeol, President of KOTRA, said, "Export tech companies can receive comprehensive services necessary for local expansion, including infrastructure support, corporate establishment, and talent recruitment at the K-Tech Camp," adding, "We hope many of our export tech companies will make use of it."
