The Origin Summit, set to take place in Seoul on September 23, has announced a second wave of speakers featuring influential figures from technology and culture.
Featured Speakers
Confirmed speakers include Sooman Lee, founder of SM Entertainment and A2O Entertainment, Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, and Justin Sun, founder of TRON. These experts will address the significant impact of intellectual property on future technologies.
Importance of Intellectual Property
Intellectual Property (IP) is becoming a critical asset in the AI era. With a current valuation of over $80 trillion, IP encompasses everything from AI training data to patents and music catalogs. As AI technologies advance, ensuring access to verified and licensed IP becomes crucial.
South Korea as a Tech Hub
South Korea stands out as a progressive market for the convergence of culture, capital, and technology. With cultural IP exports reaching $13.6 billion in 2024, Korea attracts attention as a critical hub for crypto innovation, with 30% of the population actively investing in digital assets.
The formation of the Origin Summit highlights the importance of IP as a key asset in the evolving digital economy, drawing the attention of global leaders and cultural icons.
