Bunicon Support Program (Busan Flagship Tech Startups)

Run by Busan Startup Investment Agency (BSIA).

The flagship tier of the Busan Startup Investment Agency's Bunicon ladder, this programme runs across 2026 from January to December, with evaluation and selection in March and operation from April. Every selected company receives KRW 50,000,000 in commercialisation funding and the top three performers receive a further KRW 50,000,000. Support is a Bunicon certification plus grant funding, not an investment, so no equity is taken. Generalist by sector, and the delivery format is not published.
