Jikida Co., Ltd. (CEO Cho Sang-eun) participated in the ’12 International Council for Small and Medium Business World Congress (ICSB World Congress)’ business showcase held at the Kimdaejung Convention Center in Gwangju for three days from Wednesday the 14th to Friday the 3th.
Jidida is a company that has developed safety products to ensure user safety and respond quickly to disasters. As a result of focusing on improving research and development capabilities since its establishment in 2019, the company made its name known in the industry by achieving 1,800% of its funding goal for its first product on the crowdfunding platform ‘Tumblbug’. Since then, the company has been carrying out its responsibility as a ‘brand that protects life’ by actively engaging in charity activities and donations as well as promoting products and technologies through participation in various domestic and international exhibitions and fairs.
At this exhibition, Zikida showcased a variety of its safety products, and introduced the ‘Jikida Portable Emergency Kit’ to visitors as the most core product. Officials explain that the greatest significance of this is to allow a total of 9 types of disaster and safety accident response supplies to be easily carried in a square case that can be held in the palm of a handful of adult hands.
The contents include whistles for sending rescue signals, ultra-small LED lights, and glow-in-the-dark sticks. In addition, supplies that can be used to increase short-term survival rates and provide first aid, such as energy sources such as sugar, alcohol, cotton, bandages, and raincoats, are also included. In addition, an identity verification card that lists name, gender, blood type, etc. to help secure golden time in emergency situations that require handover to a hospital or embassy overseas is stored at the very inside of the package.
In particular, a theft and missing child prevention tracker that can be connected to the Jijida mobile application (app) via Bluetooth is also provided. Unlike existing tracker products that operate at all times and transmit location information in real time, Jijida’s tracker can be used to transmit rescue signals and location information to guardians through a smartphone connected to the device when a button is pressed.
In addition, when you press and hold the button to switch to the always-on power mode, it prevents theft or loss of valuables by generating a vibration notification when the smartphone and the kit are separated by more than 5m.
An official from Jikida said, “Even though it contains all of these various emergency supplies, it has a light weight of about 100g and a small package size, and the luminous strap ensures portability and visibility.” He added, “Not only is it an effective response to emergency situations, but there has been a recent increase in “It is a product that will definitely play a role in ensuring the safety of female consumers living in single-person households,” he added.
He continued, “Based on its outstanding convenience and functionality, our portable emergency kit has achieved 4,200% of the target in crowdfunding before its official launch, and has also succeeded in being sold on some domestic and international online platforms.” “We are continuing our efforts to expand into various countries by seeking overseas partners and buyers, including the United States and Japan,” he added.
