AI Startup 'Wadle' Partners with OpenAI
Established Collaboration with OpenAI through Global Enterprise Partnership Program
Formal Enterprise Contract Signed
The Ministry of SMEs and Startups announced on the 9th that Wadlee, a leading startup in the artificial intelligence (AI) sector that has been collaborating with OpenAI through the global corporate collaboration program, has signed an enterprise contract with OpenAI.
The OpenAI enterprise contract is an agreement that supports companies in using OpenAI's AI technology on a large scale, and Wadlee is the first domestic startup to sign an enterprise contract with OpenAI.
Since last June, when Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, visited Korea and agreed to jointly nurture promising Korean startups in the AI sector through the global corporate collaboration program, the Ministry of SMEs and Startups has been discovering capable AI startups and matching them with OpenAI. In March, 10 startups were finally selected at OpenAI headquarters in San Francisco to participate in this year’s global corporate collaboration program. OpenAI supported the selected startups by providing access to OpenAI services and expert mentoring, while the Ministry of SMEs and Startups offered technical consulting linked with leading AI companies and operated local programs to support entry into the U.S. market.
Wadlee is a startup that develops and supplies the conversational AI shopping agent ‘Gentoo’. Last month, Wadlee visited San Francisco to participate in the Silicon Valley entry support program operated by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups for companies participating in the global corporate collaboration program, and as a result of business consultations with OpenAI, signed the OpenAI enterprise contract.
