The Ministry of SMEs and Startups announced that on the 20th, it held a meeting at the Daejeon Startup Park in Yuseong-gu, Daejeon, with re-enterprise corporations, re-enterprise support institutions, and academic experts to listen to the industry's on-site difficulties and policy suggestions and to facilitate communication.
The policy field tour is a policy initiative where the Minister visits key policy areas of the SME sector to incorporate the voices from the field into the policies. It targets small businesses, medium-sized corporations, ventures, and startups.
During the policy field tour, re-enterprise initial and growth corporations, promising companies attracting investment, support institutions, and academic experts gathered to discuss ▲ expanding financial support through investment to resolve funding difficulties for re-entrepreneurs ▲ policy linkage measures for scaling up re-entrepreneurs ▲ improving accessibility to re-enterprise policies for senior entrepreneurs ▲ and spreading a positive culture of re-enterprise.
They also discussed the 'blind spot of the prohibition of joint responsibility for venture investment,' which is cited as a stumbling block for re-entrepreneurship. The Ministry plans to establish a new joint responsibility prohibition clause for investments by personal investment associations where the startup planner and the planner serve as members.
Minister Han Seong-suk noted, "Re-enterprise is not merely the repetition of closing and starting again; it is the process of expanding the 'experience' asset accumulated by our society into a new 'growth engine'" and emphasized, "I will do my utmost to support re-enterprise corporations to become key players in realizing 'a true era of growth where everyone thrives,' which is the key issue of our economy.
The Ministry of SMEs and Startups plans to promptly review and implement the suggestions from this policy field tour and incorporate them into the 're-enterprise and re-challenge activation plan' and the 'comprehensive measures for becoming a global venture powerhouse' to be prepared in the second half of the year.
