Pearson & Partners Korea Co-Hosts Market Entry Seminar with ECCK

Seoul, November 6, 2025 — Pearson & Partners Korea proudly co-hosted the Information Session on Business and Market Entry in Korea in partnership with the European Chamber of Commerce in Korea (ECCK) at the Estonian Business Hub, Seoul Square.

The event, held from 11:30 to 13:00, gathered an engaged audience of about 30 participants, including representatives from embassies, business associations, startups, and consulting firms. With its balance of expert insights, practical discussions, and networking, the session offered a comprehensive roadmap for building a successful business presence in Korea.

Guidance for Foreign Entrepreneurs Entering the Korean Market

The information session was tailored for foreign entrepreneurs, startups, and global professionals exploring opportunities in Korea’s competitive and innovation-driven economy. While Korea offers a wealth of potential, it also presents unique legal, cultural, and operational challenges.

The keynote presentation by Justin Kim, CEO of Pearson & Partners Korea, focused on navigating Korea’s business environment with confidence and precision. Drawing on years of advisory experience, he outlined the key phases of market entry, from company registration and visa options to regulatory compliance, tax planning, and local operations.

Attendees gained valuable insights into:

• Choosing the right legal entity structure

• Understanding visa and immigration pathways for foreign professionals

• Managing regulatory frameworks and licensing across sectors

• Ensuring tax compliance and labor law alignment

• Overcoming cultural and communication barriers for sustainable growth

The discussion combined strategic vision with hands-on practical advice, giving participants the tools to make informed decisions and operate effectively within Korea’s unique business landscape.

A Collaborative and Diverse Exchange

The event attracted a diverse international audience, including European embassies, institutional members, startups, and service providers. This diversity created an environment rich in perspective and collaboration, where participants could share experiences and best practices.

The session’s interactive format encouraged dialogue, with participants asking thoughtful questions and exchanging insights drawn from real-world cases. The professional yet relaxed setting, complete with coffee and sandwiches, encouraged conversation and new connections between attendees from both public and private sectors.
