In addition, policy directions for supporting mobility startups were presented through subsequent meetings and panel discussions.
In particular, the presenters agreed that an investment policy is needed to revitalize Korea’s mobility ecosystem through long-term investment, rather than short-term investment as seen in overseas investment trends. In addition, as convergence and convergence between different industries accelerates, it is difficult for one company to solve all problems, and cooperation between companies is important for the long-term development of the mobility industry, emphasizing the need for government support for startup cooperation models. .
Professor Jeong Gu-min of Kookmin University, who chaired the seminar that day, said, “As the mobility industry has higher barriers to commercialization than other industries, a policy support system is needed to strengthen overseas competitiveness.”
