Scaling Korean Climate Tech: Startup Showcase & Partner Roundtables | Hosted by: Third Derivative
Join us on day one of Energy Tech Summit Asia for a focused afternoon with 10 climate tech startups from Korea's innovation ecosystem, hosted by Third Derivative/RMI in partnership with Hyundai Motor Chung Mong-Koo Foundation and Coalition for Our Common Future (COCF). The participating startups represent the Green Society and ITAP accelerator programs.
In this side event each founder gets two minutes to show what they're building, what they've proven, and who they want to meet. Then the conversation moves to the tables.
How the afternoon works
🎤 Startup introductions: 10 short pitches covering the problem, the solution, current traction, and one clear ask
💬 Two partner roundtables: small-group discussions built around real challenges in pilots, market entry, financing, and project development. You'll join two tables with one rotation, so you meet four startups in depth
🤝 Open networking: time at the end to go back to the founders and partners most relevant to you
Locations: Seminar room 4
Who should attend
The session is designed for investors, corporates, project developers, and ecosystem partners looking for their next pilot, partnership, or investment in Asia's energy transition. Places are limited to around 40 guests, so registrations are reviewed to keep the room balanced.
Why join
You'll leave with a clear view of which startups fit your priorities, direct conversations with their founders, and concrete next steps to follow up during the summit and after.
