How GS Retail works with startups
GS Challenge: Future Retail has run since 2023 with the Seoul Creative Economy Innovation Center. Business units first define a problem and GS Retail then searches for startups to solve it; over 2023 to 2025 the program reviewed around 320 startups and selected 18 for collaboration. The fourth cohort in 2026 selected five startups for about four months of collaboration, concluding mid-November.
