BUSAN — The Busan city government will host FLY ASIA 2026, an Asian startup expo, at BEXCO Exhibition Center 1 from Oct. 7 to 8. The event brings together startups, investors and startup officials from South Korea and abroad to build business networks and seek investment.
Now in its fifth year, the expo has overhauled its content around maritime industries and artificial intelligence, two of Busan's core strategic sectors. The venue has been expanded to 1.5 times the size of last year, and 49 institutions from 18 countries will take part, making it the largest edition to date.
The expo will introduce LED digital displays that allow companies to promote their businesses and products without a physical booth, and will upgrade its investment and consulting programs. More than 20,000 startup officials and general visitors from home and abroad are expected to attend.
