[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] The Ministry of SMEs and Startups announced on the 30th that ‘SME Venture 24,’ which serves as an integrated portal by consolidating information and services provided on various websites for SMEs and small business owners, surpassed 1.5 million visits within two months since its launch on August 17.
SME Venture 24 offers integrated services where support information for SMEs and small business owners?such as unified issuance of certificates, streamlined application for support projects, customized support project recommendations, comprehensive policy fund inquiries and consultations, and integrated authentication?can be checked and processed in one place.
Through two months of service operation, the platform achieved tangible results with a cumulative membership of 17,000, 140,000 visitors, and a total of 1.5 million visits.
Lee Sang-eun, team leader of Bitsensing, a venture company developing autonomous driving radar and a user of SME Venture 24, said, “There are many government support projects for early-stage startups, but it was inconvenient to search for each project individually. However, through SME Venture 24, we can view all support project listings in one place and apply online immediately.”
The Ministry of SMEs and Startups has been expanding the types of certificates and support projects available for application since May and is conducting the second phase development project of SME Venture 24 to integrate related ministry websites, aiming to expand the service by February next year.
