Where Technology Meets Capital: Participation in the IBK Venture Startup Eum Festival

Amously participated in the 2025 IBK Venture Startup Eum Festival, held on December 3 at Seoul Dragon City.
This event was organized under the theme of “Connecting Technology and Capital” and was designed as a comprehensive networking event that brings together investment, market access, and global networks for technology-based startups.
Approximately 500 participants—including startups, venture capital firms, large corporations, and related institutions—gathered in one place to discuss the growth of innovative companies, making it a meaningful occasion.

A Platform for Insight Sharing with Innovative Companies and Leading VCs from Korea and Abroad

At the event, representative technology companies from Korea and overseas, such as FuriosaAI and Noah’s Farm, along with major investment firms including DSC Investment and Sage Partners, participated in panel discussions sharing insights on successful fundraising strategies and experiences in global expansion.

This was followed by forums where innovative companies representing the AI, biotech, and cultural industries—such as Wrtn Technologies, IMGT, and SLL JoongAng—presented insights into future strategic industries. The event concluded with a demo day featuring performance presentations and vision sharing by IBK Changgong companies, further energizing the atmosphere on site.

A Meaningful Networking Experience for the Growth of Technology Companies

During the event, we engaged in in-depth discussions with technology companies, investors, and representatives from government and related institutions across various fields, exchanging perspectives on key challenges in the manufacturing AI sector and the future direction of the market. In particular, by sharing growth-stage challenges faced by technology-based startups as well as capital and market entry strategies, we were able to identify many opportunities that could lead to future collaboration and partnerships.

Amously to Continue Its Challenge as a Technology-Driven Innovator

At the event, IBK Industrial Bank of Korea President Sung-tae Kim stated, “We will serve as a catalyst for the growth journey of technology companies,” expressing a strong commitment to expanding the venture and startup ecosystem. From January 2023 to November 2025, IBK supplied KRW 2.5 trillion in venture capital to approximately 3,000 innovative companies, with 34 of them successfully going public—demonstrating meaningful achievements.

Amously also plans to use its participation in this Eum Festival as an opportunity to strengthen connections with the domestic and global technology ecosystem and to continue its challenge to grow as a competitive innovator in the manufacturing AI field. Going forward, we will steadily expand our capabilities as a technology-driven startup through building diverse partnerships, strengthening market validation, and expanding our global network.
