If you are a Korean brand

Beyond expansion partners, you can also be matched with investors

If you choose “investor connections” in your application, investors in Japan and Thailand that fit your conditions review it. Even once you are matched with an investor, whether to proceed and on what terms is up to the brand.

  • We match based on the investment range and management terms you set.
  • What information investors see is agreed with the brand first.

If you are a real estate or listed company in Japan or Thailand

Matched with chances to invest in, or import, Korean brand IP

We match companies interested in Korean brands' store and IP businesses with brands that are preparing to go overseas. Which brands fit is decided after we hear about your areas of interest and scale.

  • Real estate companies with commercial space: you can review space for Korean brands to move into.
  • Listed companies: when you are considering importing, partnering on, or investing in Korean brand IP, we match you with brands.
