Gyeongbuk Technopark is recruiting 35 companies for the '2025 Gyeongbuk Youth CEO Advanced Fostering Support & JUMP-UP Support' project to discover promising young CEOs in North Gyeongsang Province and systematically contribute to the activation of the local startup ecosystem.
Both projects are carried out by the Gyeongbuk Youth Startup Support Center and target young entrepreneurs under the age of 39 who have their business (headquarters) located in North Gyeongsang Province.
First, the 'Gyeongbuk Youth CEO Advanced Fostering Support' is recruiting the 15th cohort of 30 Gyeongbuk youth CEOs, including 20 CEOs who have completed the advanced course of the 'City/County Prospective Youth Entrepreneur Fostering Project' and 10 CEOs with business experience of more than one year but less than three years.
The recruitment fields include all areas such as technology startups, knowledge startups, sixth industry, and general startups. Each company will receive a basic startup activity fund of 10 million KRW, with a maximum of up to 15 million KRW.
In addition, the 'Gyeongbuk Youth CEO JUMP-UP Support', which has been promoted by Gyeongbuk TP since last year, is a growth support program designed to help youth companies with business experience of more than three years but less than seven years overcome the so-called 'Death Valley'. This program is recruiting five youth CEOs based on technological innovation and knowledge services, providing up to 30 million KRW in startup activity funds.
Furthermore, investment strategy consulting linked with venture capital (VC) and accelerators (AC), support for attracting investment and consultations, practical entrepreneurship education, and market development will also be provided.
