The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korea Creative Content Agency are accepting applications for the 'Culture, Sports and Tourism R&D Project Technology Commercialization Consulting Program' until August 8. The program provides tailored support for the entire commercialization process?including technical consulting, investment linkage, and participation in overseas exhibitions?to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with achievements in culture, sports, and tourism R&D. The agencies plan to select technology transfer organizations and companies with professional commercialization qualifications as operators, aiming to enhance the dissemination and expertise of technology commercialization outcomes.
This program, targeting thirty companies, offers full-cycle, customized consulting services such as technology valuation reflecting each company’s growth stage and market demand, policy funding linkage, patent applications, technology transfer, and investment attraction presentations. It is designed to strengthen companies’ commercialization capabilities through market and technology trend analysis, tailored mentoring, and advisory support from expert groups.
Among the participating companies, fifteen will be selected through a separate evaluation to participate in the Korea Pavilion at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, United States. In addition to exhibition booth support, these companies will receive assistance with one-on-one business meetings with local investors and overseas buyers, production of technology promotion content, and media interviews. Participation will be finalized after a first-round document review by the Korea Creative Content Agency and final approval by the Consumer Technology Association in the United States.
