The Korea Exchange held the "Korea Capital Market Spotlight" conference on the 3rd (local time) in Austria, the host country of "Bio Europe 2025," to attract European companies to list on KOSDAQ and to promote the Korean capital market.


Bio Europe is the largest bio-pharmaceutical exhibition in Europe, with more than 3,000 companies from 61 countries participating in 2024.


The Korea Exchange introduced KOSDAQ and provided information on the KOSDAQ IPO process and related matters to an audience of approximately 150 executives and employees from global bio companies.


IPO specialists, including investment banks (Samsung, Eugene), venture capital firms (Korea Investment Partners, KB Investment, Intervest), law firms (Bae, Kim & Lee), and accounting firms (Samil, The All), participated to explain trends in the Korean venture capital industry, analyze IPO listing cases, and discuss accounting and legal issues related to listing.


This conference was part of "Korea Night," co-hosted by the Korea Exchange and related organizations (Korea Pharmaceutical and Bio-Pharma Manufacturers Association, Korea Health Industry Development Institute, National Institute of Toxicological Research), and included networking events between domestic and international institutions and companies. The Korea Exchange also held one-on-one meetings with foreign bio companies participating in Bio Europe to provide information on KOSDAQ market trends and listing procedures.
