The Seoul Olympic Memorial National Sports Promotion Foundation (hereinafter referred to as the Sports Promotion Foundation) announced on the 20th that it will open a variety of programs such as office space, legal, accounting, marketing and professional consulting support to sports companies with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism (hereinafter referred to as the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism).

More than 50 people, including Ha Hyung-joo, chairman of the Sports Corporation, Shin Ji-won, director of the sports industry division of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and officials from the tenant company, attended the opening ceremony held at the 'Scolab' Corporate Support Center in Olympic Park, Seoul on the 19th to celebrate the new start of 'Scolab'.

Following the opening ceremony, a meeting was held with tenant companies, venture capital (VC), and sports industry-related organizations to hear the difficulties of sports companies and discuss the direction of improvement, which was praised as an event worthy of the original purpose of 'scorab'.




Chairman Ha Hyung-joo said, `I hope that Scorab will be a place of creativity and challenge to lead innovation in the sports industry,' adding, `We hope that sports companies starting from here will be reborn as competitive companies in overseas markets as well as domestic companies.'

'Scolab' is a facility that has expanded and reorganized the existing 'Sports Industry Comprehensive Support Center' by remodeling idle office space in Olympic Park. In particular, the newly created Corporate Support Center 1 has a total of two floors and about 3180 square meters (962 pyeong) of independent office spaces, along with 54 shared offices for small and small businesses (1 to 2 people). As a result, it is notable that the space where 24 existing companies could reside has been expanded more than four times so that more than 100 companies can move in.
