Development of an Online Platform for Education, Recruitment, and Entrepreneurship Information

The Department of Pet Grooming and Behavior Correction at Dongmyung University announced on October 24 that it had signed a business agreement with the Startup Support Center of Yonsei University Mirae Campus on October 21 at the university’s Startup Incubation Center to establish an integrated online platform for the advancement of the K-Pet Industry.

The purpose of this agreement is to build core infrastructure for the rapidly growing pet industry by integrating information across education, recruitment, and entrepreneurship into a single digital platform. Through this collaboration, the two universities plan to jointly promote innovative development in the pet industry by nurturing talent, fostering a startup ecosystem, and improving service quality.

Two students from the Department of Pet Grooming and Behavior Correction at Dongmyung University will directly participate in the platform’s development, taking charge of content planning and production, while the Department of Digital Healthcare at Yonsei University will be responsible for technology development. The students will gain hands-on, field-oriented experience and help create a startup education model that organically connects academia and industry.

Professor Kwak Jinsook of Dongmyung University stated, “Through this agreement, students will have the opportunity to gain practical experience in the industry beyond simple theoretical learning. We will enhance students’ field competitiveness through various industry-academia cooperation projects and foster creative talent to lead the pet industry.”
