Entering the US used to take a 30-person GTM team and two years of burn. Some teams are now doing it with a handful of people and an AI stack. Five operators open their real screens, ten minutes each: the actual tools, workflows, and numbers behind their US entry. Then the mic goes to the room. If you're running your own cross-Pacific playbook, bring one workflow that worked. If you're about to start, bring your hardest question. Korean food and drinks after, and we're not rushing anyone out. THE NIGHT - 5:00 · Doors, coffee - 5:30 · Six lightning talks, ten minutes each. Real screens, real numbers, receipts required. - 6:20 · Open floor. Bring one workflow that worked, or the question you're stuck on. - 6:50 · Korean food, drinks, and the people who actually ship this stuff - 7:30 · Out the door, straight into party hour ON STAGE (5-7 min each) - Luke Ahn, CEO at Claythis, "My workflow to bring interactive K-Drama to US" - Simon Lee, Head of US GTM at Vessl, "What AI can and cannot do in 0 to 1 GTM" - Snow Lee, CEO at SearchD, "How we secured AI visibility in 3 weeks in the US" - Taeyong Kim, CEO at EO, "How AI Changed EO and Media" - Lucy Park, CPO at Upstage, "How Wins Travel" - Ryan Lee, CEO at Jigo, "AI head of workplace - automating office lease projects" Every talk is a workflow walkthrough, not a product demo. Nobody on stage is selling anything, and we'll say so from the stage. WHO IT'S FOR Operators running US go-to-market from Asia, or about to start. Founders, country managers, brand leads, and the two-person teams carrying a whole market. If you have real traction at home and nobody in America has heard of you yet, this room is yours.
