dcamp is Korea's largest startup hub, established with funding from 19 financial institutions.
Since launching in 2013, dcamp has supported over 4,500 startups through funding, mentoring, and
community building. In 2020, we opened Front1, a 22-story startup campus in Seoul’s Mapo district,
which now hosts over 130 startups and scaleups.
Beyond being a physical space, dcamp actively architects open innovation programs connecting
Korean startups with global corporates, especially in Japan. We co-design proof-of-concept (PoC)
collaborations and strategic matching programs with leading Japanese companies across media,
finance, and retail sectors. With a deep understanding of both cultures and industries, we aim to
reduce friction in cross-border innovation and empower startups to scale through meaningful global
partnerships.
Our mission is to not only support startups from Korea—but to serve as a bridge between
ecosystems, creating sustainable impact through collaboration.
At SusHi Tech Tokyo 2025, we’re not just bringing startups—we’re building bridges. Our
participation reflects a long-term commitment to accelerating open innovation between Korean
startups and Japanese corporates. Rather than exhibiting ourselves, we focus on empowering the
next generation of innovators by facilitating meaningful PoC and business dialogues on-site.
As a cross-border partner and enabler, we look forward to collaborating with Japanese stakeholders
who are eager to engage with cutting-edge startups in AI, digital media, sustainability, and more.
Let’s unlock new value—together.
