Gwanak-gu, which is dedicated to fostering global startup companies (Mayor Park Jun-hee), held the ‘CES 2025 Gwanak S-Valley Pavilion Launch Ceremony’ on the 20th.

This launch ceremony was organized to celebrate the departure of Gwanak S-Valley companies participating in CES 2025, the world’s largest consumer electronics technology expo, and to support their entry into overseas markets.

At the event, Mayor Park Jun-hee of Gwanak-gu and the Chairperson of the Gwanak-gu Council attended to encourage the challenges of Gwanak S-Valley companies.

Following this, representatives of the companies participating in CES 2025 performed a puzzle performance along with a ‘One-Sentence Aspiration Declaration’ expressing each company’s challenge and vision.

As the company representatives shared their aspirations and assembled the puzzle, the completed puzzle revealed the message ‘LET’S START, a challenge toward the world,’ embodying the vision of Gwanak S-Valley.

The district government held in-depth discussions with the participating companies about global expansion strategies and cooperation plans for Gwanak S-Valley companies. Each company representative pledged to prove their technological capabilities through participation in CES 2025 and achieve tangible results in overseas markets.

At CES 2024, eight Gwanak S-Valley companies participated and achieved results including ▲12 billion KRW in technology demonstration contracts ▲3.1 billion KRW in investment attraction ▲3 export contracts.

This year, a total of 10 companies, including those that received innovation awards, are expected to participate. The district government expects that the expanded number of participating companies compared to last year will be able to form more networks with overseas investors at CES.

Additionally, the district plans to announce Gwanak S-Valley’s core strategies and vision at CES for the second consecutive year, solidifying its position as a ‘hub for youth startups and technological innovation.’

Mayor Park Jun-hee said, “This launch ceremony will be a new starting point for Gwanak S-Valley companies to leap onto the global stage,” adding, “We will continue to actively support venture and startup companies’ overseas expansion and growth into unicorn companies through expanding global networks and strengthening technology-based support.”
