Next Elevation, a startup accelerator established by Asia Economy, has selected five startups to participate in its program and will actively support the acceleration program.

Over 130 startups applied for the first acceleration program, and five startups were finally selected as participants.

The final selected companies are ▲Nootropic Lab (smart drinks and health functional food solutions that help improve brain function) ▲Limpid (pet food healthcare platform, formerly Rhinobox) ▲Gumper (an all-in-one NFT membership service platform combining issuance, trading, and community) ▲MyHouse (a platform providing detailed interior estimates and construction services based on 3D modeling) ▲OD (an AI-based shopping service platform reflecting individual preferences).

A workshop among the final selected companies was held for two days and one night in Hoengseong, Gangwon Province. On the first day, the program included an investor relations (IR) session introducing each startup to share their business details and engage in Q&A. During the networking session, the startup representatives shared their concerns and future plans, creating a meaningful time for exchange.

The startups selected for the Next Elevation acceleration program will be assigned tailored mentors from September to November for three months to enhance their businesses by setting key performance indicators (KPIs), establishing product strategies, and more. Startups selected as outstanding companies during the program will receive investments of up to 100 million KRW.

Next Elevation plans to continue with follow-up investment attraction through a demo day in December. In particular, PR program support will also be provided through Asia Economy Core and the Asia Economy podcast channel "Apat".
