The main contents include ▲speed meetings with venture capitalists (VC) and angel investors ▲overseas expansion mentoring ▲group workshops for discovering local customers ▲visits to France's largest startup facilities ▲business meetings with local companies ▲and IR pitching (demo day) by participating companies.

The demo day on the 27th was the main event of G-Camp, where 70 local VCs and ACs were invited to conduct IR pitching for local investment attraction of domestic startups. Johan Kyo, Director of Human Resources Development at the Small and Medium Business Corporation, said, “Starting with France, we plan to actively support domestic startups in a total of five countries: Vietnam in July, Singapore, Saudi Arabia in August, and the United States in September,” adding, “We will continue to make every effort to support the globalization of promising startups.”
