​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.

​Interested in attending? This will be an intimate Demo Day for guests interested in exploring investment, pilot, or commercial partnership opportunities with the companies as they scale in the U.S. If that sounds like a fit, please request an invitation through Luma. Our team will review requests and confirm attendance.

​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.

​12:00 - 1:00 PM | Lunch + Networking
Enjoy lunch and connect directly with the founders and members of the broader AIIA, NYU, AI, startup, and investment communities.

​We hope you will join us to celebrate the culmination of the Fall 2026 program and the continued journey from South Korea to New York!
