MEXC Ventures at the Forefront of Korea's Blockchain-AI University Innovation Showcase

MEXC Ventures served as a premier sponsor of the blockchain track, alongside the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA), LG CNS, and Tether.

Other industry-sponsored recognitions included the Tether Award (Nestyle), along with special prizes for innovation (Q-medicine), convergence (TokenSquare), and creativity (EyeOfTime).

"Today's students aren't just learning — they're building. This new generation is deeply connected to what comes next in technology. Events like this show how universities can be the launchpads for real change, and we're proud to stand alongside Korea University in supporting this movement."
