The discussion also focused on the KRAFTON-NAVER-Mirae Asset Unicorn Growth Investment Fund (the “Unicorn Growth Fund”), which KRAFTON is pursuing in partnership with NAVER and Mirae Asset Group. The Unicorn Growth Fund is an Asia-focused fund with a planned size of up to KRW 1 trillion, jointly established by leading Korean companies across multiple sectors. With KRAFTON’s participation, the fund is expected to support mid to long-term investment in promising Indian technology companies and startups.
“India is rapidly emerging as a core hub for global technological innovation, and it is meaningful to see Korean companies expanding long-term collaboration and investment with a focus on the Indian market,” said Gourangalal Das, Ambassador of India to the Republic of Korea. “Private-sector-led investment, including initiatives by companies such as KRAFTON, is expected to play an important role in supporting the growth of Indian technology companies and startups as they expand into global markets.”
“India is not simply an overseas market for KRAFTON, but a strategic partner where we have built trust and a strong local presence through BATTLEGROUNDS MOBILE INDIA,” said Byung-Gyu Chang, Chairman of the Board of Directors at KRAFTON. “The Unicorn Growth Fund represents a starting point for expanding collaboration with promising Indian companies beyond gaming and across a broader range of industries, building on this experience.”
KRAFTON plans to continue investing in leading technology companies with a focus on India through the Unicorn Growth Fund, while continuing to explore opportunities for collaboration that connect technology and industry in the Indian market.
