She hears it in almost every meeting.

When someone brings up her age, she doesn't say a word, she just shows the numbers. Revenue and capital raised

At 23, Ga-won Kwon started EduSync. Three months later she shipped her first product. Two months after that, she raised her first round of funding.

But the product didn't start with a pitch. It started in classrooms.
Before she started EduSync, she spent months sitting with teachers, watching how they actually ran a class.

She asked a lot of them the same question: what's broken?
What she found was a gap nobody had filled.

Schools had the hardware, the smart boards, the tablets, but no software tying it together. The teacher's screen, the board, and every student's tablet all lived separately

So she connected them.

What the teacher writes shows up on each student's screen. What a student writes flows back to the board. The whole school day runs through one system.

Teachers noticed the small things first.

One said the best part was not having to carry a USB drive around anymore. Another liked being able to see, at a glance, which students were actually connected.

At 24, that approach has paid off.

Three schools signed on. A national broadcaster hired her to build a safety alert system. She filed a patent, and lined up her first export deals in Vietnam and Central Asia

Now she’s bringing EduSync to India next.

Love to hear your thoughts🇮🇳🇰🇷

Korean founders struggle to reach Indian corporates. Indian enterprises don't have a structured way to find Korean technology partners. That gap has been expensive for both sides.

Suneel Bandhu brings years of cross-border business development between India and Korea, connecting Korean IT companies with major Indian enterprises, with roots in the Tata Group network. He understands how large organizations make decisions.

Global Venture Play works the other side: early-stage founders, investors, and venture relationships across Asia.

Our strengths don't overlap. They connect.

Startup-to-corporate and corporate-to-startup are different motions.

Together, we're building a more direct path between the Korean and Indian innovation ecosystems.
