On April 20th, at the IGC Small Theater, IGC students were given the opportunity to learn from and have a networking session with IGC Alumni working as professional CEOs.
Four notable IGC alumni working in the fields of real estate service, customized website application development, social media, and IT solution startups shared their journeys of starting their own companies after graduation. SUNY Korea’s proud graduates Soomin Seo (CEO of Livable) and Dongyeob Lee (CEO of Zero Class Lab) participated in this event.
100 % of the attendees responded that the event “exceeded their expectations” in the evaluation survey. One of the lessons students mentioned learning through the workshop included “the government funding process and starting prototypes with tools instead of starting the program from scratch”.
