SNU
Similair to SMU IIE but in a much larger scale, SNU too has their own incubation chambers. They follow 4 main process: Discover, incubating, accelerating and investing. A startup that spoke to us, Educast told us about his journey and experience for the start-up. Their goal was to distribute online resources to people. They made many mistakes such as hiring too many people at the start and its also hard to retain good staffs as many will want to go big companies upon graduation. The most important lesson from this session is that start-ups are demanding to our lives and we might have to might choices about it(delay graduation).
Finotek
Finotek focuses on trust and sincerity to deliver their solution to their customer. They are the platform that enable banks to do online verification on their customers in a seamless manner. 3 main takeaways, 1st is that forecasting the trend is extremely important. 2nd is endurance as you need to tide through the first stage of difficultities and overcome them. 3rd will be teamwork as working in a team with the same goal and passion, your goals will be achieved much quicker.
BeNative
The company SMATOOS founded BeNative on the basis of teaching business language to business people by business people. They do this by interviewing powerful people in powerful company and analysing words they used. BeNative is largely engaged by the Chinese government & many Korean organisations to educate and teach their members English language or Chinese. It is a paid service or a free service with advertisements. The biggest lesson I learnt is that superior sales is enough and product differentiation is not always necessary.
MEMEBOX
MEMEBOX aims to merge engineering with aesthetics biology by delivering cheap beauty products to their consumers with the help of popular bloggers and models. This company adopts an American style approach in managing the business as the words “San Francisco” was mentioned multiple times during his speech. Mobile is the main channel of income for the company. I learnt that there mainly 4 phases in a start-up. Firstly, making money. Secondly, serve or building a community. Thirdly, changing the industry and lastly, creating an impact on humanity.

Learning Points for SNU
- Compared to SMU, SNU has an entire building dedicated for entrepeurship and they do not limit students from a specific faculty
- Students are free to hire and fire outsiders, talent and their classmates for a fee
- Startups doing localization of an existing service can develop a niche in their home countries
Learning Points for Finotek
- If nobody understands my question, make it less complicated. I tried to give a context so the presenters could understand better, but it seems the language barrier is way too high.
- Apply the above the point to action - learn & do it!!!
Learning Points for BeNative
- BN started out by carving a new market for itself - in that way we get 100% market share! also, we have fresh opportunities given there is fresh market demand for it
- Company culture has to begin from the inception of the company
- Hierarchy, while existent, shouldn't take fun out of work
- Startups can rely on funding and extend their breakeven duration in order to build an awesome service
- Leaders should invest in continual learning of their employees - PHD, masters, etc - and also get avenues for staff to destress - punching bag & sound studio
- A strong backer gives the founder the freedom and leisure to let his ideas flourish - Dino had the success of his first company in his pocket and the money from the merger. He could be a serial entrepeneur.
- Key stakeholders have to move to new markets to place weight and emphasis on the importance when entering new markets.

Seoul National University
SNU has such a beautiful campus and the students are so driven and motivated to do well. It was very nice getting to know the students from STEM. I particularly like the student initiated workspace, it is a very nice place to chill and generate ideas together.
Finotek
During the speech given by Finotek's CEO, I was really inspired by what he shared with us during those few brief minutes.
- You must have forecasting foresight and be able to spot so that you know what to do in the future
- Endurance is important
If you think you feel something is right, endure and pursue it.
- Sincerity - Trust yours employees and team mates and do something you enjoy.
- Offer a sincere service to ur users
