Hyejoo Lee
resident, founder, and CEO of Sejong Technology Transfer & Commercialization Center
Our company focus on technology transfer and commercialization. Our base is in Daedeok Valley in Daejeon, South Korea, surrounded by leading universities as well as government and private research institutes. R&D investment in Korea has grown exponentially over recent years. Our company takes technology developed in Korea and we market it to companies in Korea and around the world. In addition to commercialization of technology, we provide international market analyses, and we work to attract venture capital to technology start-ups.
R&D investment is made with the hope that bright new ideas will find their way quickly and efficiently into the marketplace. However, until recently there were no companies in Korea designed to facilitate this transfer process. This transfer process is our central focus. And unlike our competitors, we concentrate our efforts on carefully selected, high value technologies.
Over the years I have seen many brilliant inventors who have groundbreaking technology, but they do not know how to take their technology to the marketplace. They do not know business. I have 20 years of experience in business, and my company can serve as a bridge between inventors and industry. We can catalyze the transfer of new ideas into the marketplace, and we can help to insure that inventors receives compensation that accurately reflects the fair market value of their invention.
