In Korean Deep Tech, Funding a Project Isn't Building a Company
Original: In Korean Deep Tech, Funding the Project Is Not the Same as Building the Company
A new commentary argues that South Korea's deep tech sector faces a structural gap: startups are securing project-based public funding, but that money alone does not translate into sustainable, founder-led companies. The piece suggests Korea needs to shift from funding research projects toward building durable businesses with long-term commercial strategies, a debate now resonating across the country's startup ecosystem.
Why now: It touches a live debate about whether Korea's heavy public R&D spending is actually producing scalable deep tech companies.
