South Korea’s tech heavyweights are sharpening their India focus, with PUBG (Battlegrounds) Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) maker Krafton stepping beyond gaming to anchor a Rs 6,000 crore investment vehicle aimed squarely at India’s next wave of high-growth startups.
The proposed Unicorn Growth Fund, backed by Krafton, Naver, and Mirae Asset, is designed to target “soonicorns” or companies on the brink of unicorn status across technology-led sectors such as artificial intelligence, fintech, digital content, logistics, and more.
