Can a foreigner apply?

Yes, with conditions

Foreigners are not excluded, but the announcement attaches requirements — residency, a Korean entity, a visa status or a partner. Read the conditions before you spend time on this.

Open to SMEs and startups (including pre-founders, companies under 1, 2, or 3 years) that hold a location-information-based safety solution usable in daily life, work, or industrial settings. Must have a business model with a prototype that has reached the actual business stage. Companies designated as mutual-investment-restricted conglomerates under the Fair Trade Act are excluded.
