Global FLY 2025, a start-up idea competition for international students in Busan, is open for submissions until Aug 19. Budding entrepreneurs will have the chance to showcase their creative ideas on a global stage and turn them into reality!


Under the theme “Start-up ideas discovered by international students,” participants are invited to pitch bold and original business concepts. The contest is associated with Fly Asia 2025, the largest start-up expo in Asia, which is scheduled to take place at BEXCO in September.


Both individual and team entries are welcome, with teams capped at five members and required to include at least one international student. Eligibility for international students is limited to those currently enrolled at a university in Busan or graduates of a local institution.


The first round of document screening will conclude on Aug. 21, after which 10 teams will be selected for a four-week online mentoring program, running from Aug. 25 to Sept. 19. 


The finalists will then showcase their ideas at FLY Asia 2025 on Sept. 23, which includes a seven-minute presentation followed by a three-minute Q&A session.


Five winners will receive cash prizes totaling 4.25 million won.
