Registration & Meeting Process
Upon registration KOTRA coordinates with the South Korean government to begin developing a sourcing project and potential supplier pool for your teams' needs.
We communicate with your team through every step of the discovery process to ensure the best fit between your sourcing demands and the matched suppliers.
Once catered supplier pools are finalized, the suppliers are flown to the United States for in-person meetings.

On-Going Meetings
Upon registration, we excavate & match suppliers that could best fulfill your sourcing demand.
We communicate and notify each attendee regarding the excavating process and set up one-on-one meetings as we find suitable suppliers.
GP Week

Most of our attendees will have one-on-one meetings during GP week as it usually takes weeks to find & tailor appropriate suppliers that best fit your sourcing demand.
