Industry participants at the AXIS 2026 conference in Seoul said AI startups lack markets and first customers rather than ideas or technology, and urged the government to play an early-market role. Korea Startup Forum Chairman Jae-won Kim (김재원) said Korea has the layers needed for an AI powerhouse but needs the government to act as a customer. Companies cited public demand, regulation and domains such as defence and disaster response. Officials and lawmakers voiced support for first-use and purchase projects.
