​From Seoul to New York:

​Meet Five AI Companies Taking U.S. Growth to the Next Level

​This summer, NYU welcomed 20 Korean AI companies to New York City through the AI Innovation Accelerator (AIIA), supporting their efforts to understand, enter, and grow in the U.S. market.

​From that group, five companies were selected by NYU to return for an accelerated Fall 2026 program, designed to take their U.S. growth to the next level.

​Throughout the 15+ week program, each company has worked closely with a bespoke advisory team of Mentors, Consultants, MBA Fellows, and NYU Fellows matched to its sector, stage, and specific U.S. goals. Together, they have refined their U.S. positioning and pitches, built new relationships, deepened their understanding of the market, and pursued opportunities with prospective customers, partners, investors, and industry experts.

​Now, we are bringing all five companies together for the Fall 2026 AIIA Demo Day at NYU Stern.

​Agenda

​10:00 - 10:30 AM | Coffee + Networking
Arrive, get settled, meet the founders, and connect with fellow guests before the pitches begin.

​10:30 AM - 12:00 PM | Five Founder Pitches
Hear directly from each of our five companies through eight-minute pitches highlighting what they are building, their progress in the U.S. market, and where they are headed next.
