Nine of the companies were selected in the first half of the year through open innovation programs with the Seoul Business Agency (SBA) and the Korea Institute of Startup & Entrepreneurship Development. The tenth, Rebit, was found by Lotte E&C itself.
The participants shared PoC results, know-how and proposals for improvement, and discussed follow-up commercialization for construction sites.

With Spanner, an equipment monitoring company, it co-developed and tested a smart platform for integrated management of construction equipment data.
