SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Born2Global Centre (Born2Global) revealed the four innovative mobility startups it is intensively incubating in anticipation of the coming prevalence of autonomous driving.
Born2Global jointly hosted an online global mobility business meet-and-greet with Sejong Technopark. The event was held in support of Born2Global's National Innovation Cluster project (conducted in cooperation with Sejong Technopark) and served as an arena for companies to network online with global eco mobility system representatives, while forging commercial relations and securing business partners. Born2Global has operated the National Innovation Cluster project with Sejong Technopark since 2018.
MORAI, Autonomous a2z, Quantum Gate, and BlueSignal were among the four companies at the event named by Born2Global. The business meet-and-greet was held as an interactive online broadcast, allowing viewers to view and comment on videos featuring Korean and foreign investors, accelerators, and incubators as well multinational corporations and startups in the auto tech sector. Based on the demand produced by the November 27 event, Born2Global will conduct one-on-one follow-up meetings with each of the four companies by early 2021.
The mixer included an informational session on mobility/smart city trends by country, including the United States, Finland and Singapore.
