Founders Live Comes to Seoul — RRRAAAWWWR!! 🚀

After years of watching global startup scenes come alive in cities like SF, NYC, London, and Tel Aviv, I’m beyond excited to help bring Founders Live to Seoul, S. Korea for the very first time in a very long time.

For those who don’t know:
Founders Live is a fast-growing global startup community that’s already in 90+ cities — and now, Seoul officially joins the map.

Why this matters

Korea has talent. We have ideas. We have ambition. But we still need more honest, founder-first spaces — not just pitch competitions or panels, but real energy. A spark. A place where ideas collide and people connect over something real.

That’s what Founders Live is all about.

What’s happening

We’re hosting a high-energy, in-person kickoff event in 판교테크노밸리 (Pangyo Technovalley) — basically Seoul’s version of Silicon Valley — where founders get 99 seconds to pitch live, no slides, no fluff.

It’s raw, fun, and honest. Just like early-stage building should be.

There’ll be:

🔹 99-second pitches from early-stage startups
🔹 VCs, founders, operators, and future builders in the room
🔹 Drinks, snacks, and good vibes
🔹 No gatekeeping — just a community that wants to see you win

I’m co-organizer this one with William Choi, who’s now the official Founders Live Seoul City Leader. We’ve both been in this game a while — and this feels like something truly worth showing up for.

If you’re a founder, an investor, a curious creative, or just someone who believes in bold ideas — come through. It’s going to be fun. It’s going to be real. And it’s just the beginning.

Let’s build !!!
