This year’s third quarter saw a whopping 1.6m new business applications filed, an increase of 86% compared with the same quarter in 2019.

πŸ“‰Some people say that recessions are a good time to start up a business. But during the last great recession of 2009, there were about 1.8m startups through the third quarter, which is a little bit more than half of what we’re seeing this year.

This time it’s different. But why?πŸ€”

πŸš€ South Korean market is changing direction from conglomerates to startups!

Can Seoul become the next global #startup hotspot in the post #covid19 era ❓

πŸŒπŸ“2020 Global Startup Ecosystem Report placed the South Korean capital 20th overall with an ecosystem valued at US$39 billion, nearly four times the global average. It was the first time the city cracked the top 20, as well as another major ranking firm - Israel’s StartupBlink, put the city 21st overall in 2020, up nine spots from the previous year.

The country’s focus on #startups is part and parcel of a larger national effort to boost South Korea’s competitiveness by building a robust startup sector. That process should help the country break free from its traditional economic over-reliance on giant family-run conglomerates, or #chaebol.

πŸ’ΌπŸ‘”A chaebol-centric economic system is no longer appropriate because the tendency of these large groups is to absorb the best talent, absorb the financing available and even co-opt creativity, so the idea is to change the system enough to allow #entrepreneur creativity to flourish.
