    Treasurer joined the prominent technology and innovation event, ‘SWITCH (Singapore Week of Innovation & Technology) 2023,’ held in Singapore.

    Selected as one of the representatives among ten Korean companies participating in the K-Startup overseas exhibition hosted by the Small and Medium Business Administration’s startup support organization this year, SWITCH is regarded as one of Asia’s most influential technology and innovation events. It gathers startups, investors, entrepreneurs, academia, and industry experts worldwide to provide insights into the latest technological trends and innovations, fostering collaboration and networking among diverse companies.

    SWITCH has attracted thousands of participants from around the globe, forming a global innovation community that establishes partnerships and agreements between various companies, institutions, and countries, driving new business opportunities and collaborations annually. It also offers numerous opportunities for startups to attract investments, such as startup competitions and pitching sessions.

    As a leading platform in Korea’s investment industry, Treasurer focused on showcasing the diverse investment technology and services secured domestically at this event while solidifying plans for rapid expansion in the international market.

    Ted Kim, Treasurer’s CEO, stated, “Building on our success in the domestic market, we want to demonstrate how competitive our technology and services are on the international stage.” He further expressed, “SWITCH 2023 will serve as a stepping stone for Treasurer to gain international recognition.”

    He added, “Through active participation on the international stage, we aim to elevate the status of Korean startups and the investment industry.”
