Strengthening Member Support and Enhancing Membership Value

The Korea Startup Forum (KOSPO) announced on March 11 that it is launching the "Claude Credit Support Program" in partnership with global artificial intelligence (AI) research and development company Anthropic, aiming to strengthen the AI competitiveness of its member companies.


This program has been established as part of KOSPO’s core goal for this year—enhancing membership value—and is designed to provide tangible benefits to member companies. The program is open to KOSPO members, and participating companies will receive credits worth 10,000 dollars (approximately 14 million won) to use Anthropic’s AI model "Claude."

With this collaboration with Anthropic, KOSPO plans to build a practical support system to bolster the AI technology competitiveness of its member companies and facilitate their entry into global markets. Additionally, the forum aims to foster qualitative growth in the startup ecosystem through initiatives such as popularizing entrepreneurial culture (10th anniversary campaign), transitioning to a partnership-based continuous cooperation structure, and strengthening organizational execution capabilities.


In particular, this program is expected to offer practical assistance to domestic startups by enabling them to integrate AI into their services using Claude’s application programming interface (API), thereby reducing operational costs—going beyond simply providing credits.



Jaewon Kim, Chairperson of the Korea Startup Forum, stated, “Our partnership with Anthropic will serve as a foundation for member companies to immediately adopt world-class AI technologies in their business operations,” adding, “We will continue to enhance the value of KOSPO membership by developing diverse programs and global big tech collaboration models that members can truly experience, rather than limiting our efforts to one-off events.”
