I often see Korean venture companies with the world’s best ideas and technologies staying in the domestic market without knowing that they are “swans.” I want to help these fledgling startups realize that they are, instead, “ugly ducklings” – they have great potential to mature into “swans.”

To actualize this, we have to go global from the start.
