After completing professional training, the supporter students were matched with 19 startups based in Seoul and directly managed business meetings and interpretation duties at the respective company booths. Through this, they had the opportunity to participate in an overseas exhibition as members of leading domestic startup companies, understand trends in innovative technologies in the local market, and enhance their global business capabilities by meeting many companies and visitors of various nationalities.

Jin-woo Jang, a supporter student from Kookmin University’s Department of Electronic Engineering, said, “It was a very meaningful time to participate as a supporter in CES, an international consumer electronics exhibition,” adding, “What impressed me most was that I was able to act responsibly not just as a participating student but as a member of the matched company Norispace, directly briefing overseas buyers on Norispace’s human resource management solution ‘Workit’.”
