Lee, President Gave Congratulatory Remarks at the 10-year Anniversary Commemoration Ceremony of IGC “There are all kinds of thoughts running through my mind,” said Dr. Myung Oh, the Honorary President of SUNY Korea (former deputy Prime Minister) in his congratulatory speech for the 10-year anniversary of Incheon Global Campus (IGC) held on October 26th. Following on, Dr. Myung Oh emphasized the outstanding performance of IGC as he remarked that “the preparation stage for the establishment of IGC was definitely not smooth, but we were able to successfully attract and settle with 5 universities and a research center within IGC through the bold decisions and challenges for bigger goals.” “We still need support and cooperation from many others for the bold decision of the establishment of IGC as the foundation for the development of South Korea,” requested Dr. Myung Oh. As the first speaker of all 5 universities and a research center, SUNY Korea President Arthur H. Lee shared his impressions, saying that “SUNY Korea also celebrated its 10-year anniversary last June. I am filled with emotions as both IGC and SUNY Korea are celebrating their 10-year anniversaries together this year.” President Lee further remarked, “We have achieved what once was believed to be impossible, and now looking back, the past years were a constant process of change and innovation. All of this was possible through close cooperation with IGC.” As the year 2022 marks the 10-year anniversary of IGC, various events will be held from October 26th to 28th, including the Commemoration Ceremony, Panel Discussions regarding lifelong education in the IGC campus, and a Seminar on the Industry-Academia-Research Cooperation in IGC.

TMR-founders selected for Jung-Ju Young Start-up Competition TMR-founders is a start- up company established by SUNY Korea CS graduate student, Youngho Kim. The company was recently selected as one of the 12 start-up teams in the Jung-Ju Young Start-up Competition hosted by Asan-nanum group. Jung-Ju Young Start-up Competition started in 2012 to encourage and sponsor start-up companies within the nation. The average competition rate for this competition is about 100:1. [Questions for Youngho, CEO of TMR-founders] 1. Briefly introduce yourself. Hello, I am Youngho Kim, and I am currently building and running a company called tmr-founders. 2. Could you explain about your start-up company “TMR-founders”? (How it was started, etc.) Tmr-founders began with various visions of our team members that led to the same destination (self-actualization). We all dream of a world where we can make “work” happy. We define “work that anyone wants” as a start-up. Through a start-up, we expect a better world to live in. 3. We heard your company was recently selected for the final round of the Jung Ju-Young Start-up competition. Could you tell us about the competition and how your company was able to make it to the final round? Jung Ju-Young Start-up Competition is one of the biggest start-up competitions in Korea held by Asan-nanum campaign. The average competition rate is about 100:1. To be honest, we expected that we would not even pass the document screening in this competition. When we met several venture capitalists with the ppt document that we submitted for this competition, they all said this service is not attractive. We asked for tons of feedback and questions in order to not give up. At a time when our self-esteem fell to the very bottom, we passed the first document screening at the Jung Ju-Young Startup Competition. It was lucky to pass the document stage, and after that, we passed two more presentation reviews. With the passion and help of our teammates, we were selected as one of the final 12 start-up teams. 4. Do you have any messages for SUNY Korea students who wish to start their own business? Do a job or work that you can always smile about before you go to bed. Never start a business from the opinions and trends of the people around you. Believe in yourself and keep going. And please act first since there will never be perfect preparation.
