Welcome Message
Gachon University Startup College is a future university established in September 2022 to provide systematic startup education within a collaborative ecosystem consisting of companies, schools, and students for students who dream of starting a startup.
With the full support of Gachon University President Lee Gil-yeo and Cocone's CEO Cheon Yang-hyun, an alumnus of Gachon University, we have started the Gachon Cocone School to create a new startup university that has never existed before.
At Gachon University Gachon Cocone School, top-level professors with startup experience and field experts will systematically educate and support you, who dream of disruptive innovation, in a state-of-the-art dedicated startup space of 700 pyeong with a one-of-a-kind curriculum and program from around the world.
Students selected for our startup university will be provided with various scholarships and startup activity expenses, mentoring, and internship opportunities with resident companies. In the case of selecting the final outstanding team, we will provide unprecedented support through startup funds (up to 150 million KRW) and support for startup spaces to create the best environment and customized administration that allow you to fully focus on your startup.
Additionally, our startup university will establish a startup management graduate program called '1000MBA' for undergraduate graduates and the general public and operate a re-entrepreneurship educational program called 'Transversity' for those in their 40s and older, moving beyond the physical limitations and fixed concepts that existing universities have and advancing into a new form of future university where ideas and business, reality and virtuality, knowledge and practice converge.
We at Gachon University Startup College will help ensure that your passion and challenges can become new winds and hopes for our society in every step.

I want to nurture promising startups like a K-pop idol star since childhood, growing them into successful unicorn companies (valued at over 1 trillion won) as a senior entrepreneur.
