Establishing a three-party cooperation system for the development of the domestic Fem-Tech industry
The Korea Venture Capital Association announced that on the 25th it signed a three-party business agreement with the Korean Women Entrepreneurs Association and the Women Enterprise Support Center at the headquarters of the Korean Women Entrepreneurs Association in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
This agreement was prepared to ensure the successful establishment and revitalization of the Fem-Tech industry promotion project jointly pursued by the Korean Women Entrepreneurs Association and the Women Enterprise Support Center. The three organizations plan to build a cooperative system to discover Fem-Tech companies and support their development and investment, thereby promoting the growth of the domestic Fem-Tech industry.
The main points of the agreement include: ▲fostering companies with outstanding capabilities in the Fem-Tech industry ▲supporting the creation of investment funds and investment attraction activities.
Park Changsook, President of the Korean Women Entrepreneurs Association, said, “Fem-Tech is a future core industry in which healthcare, caregiving, finance, and digital technology converge around women’s life cycles. It is essential for building a technology-based, women-specialized industrial ecosystem and creating a sustainable industrial ecosystem in an era of demographic cliffs and population aging. Based on this agreement, we will actively cooperate to discover Fem-Tech companies with excellent ideas and technologies, and to ensure that support and investment are provided so they can grow into global companies.”
Meanwhile, the new “Fem-Tech Industry Promotion Project” for 2026, led by the Korean Women Entrepreneurs Association, is recruiting professional accelerators (ACs) until March 9 to foster 25 companies. Once the supported companies are selected through the ACs, they will receive continuous growth support through accelerating programs, business commercialization funding, and investment attraction. Opportunities will also be provided to promote K-Fem-Tech technologies by participating in domestic and overseas exhibitions.
