Uptempo Global Ramps Up Startup Investment & Consulting Business

A powerful ally for startup survival and growth has emerged. Uptempo Global has partnered with multiple venture company founders who have experienced successful exits to officially launch 'XTEMPO,' an innovative startup consulting and investment service. XTEMPO goes beyond simple financial support, with founders who have actual exit experience directly investing in early-stage startups and focusing on transferring practical know-how for their survival and growth. In particular, along with alternative solutions that allow companies lacking clear metrics for investment attraction to secure necessary funds, it presents a 'bootstrapping' strategy that enables them to overcome crises and grow even with limited funds. This is achieved through the professional coaching of exit founders, helping entrepreneurs reduce trial and error and tread a stable path. XTEMPO's support doesn't stop at fundraising. From establishing domestic and international marketing strategies to global market entry (GTM), technology development, and new business PoC (Proof of Concept), it provides professional consulting that strengthens practical capabilities essential for startup growth, helping companies take a step further. Uptempo Global plans to co-operate this XTEMPO service, maximizing synergy. Uptempo Global CEO Oh Jong-hoon emphasized, "While there are many investors in the market, very few have founded a startup themselves and successfully experienced an exit," and expressed his ambition to help more startups walk the path to success through the collaboration of verified exit founders and Uptempo Global's practical veterans. XTEMPO plans to assist companies in wisely utilizing their raised funds and securing a stable 'runway' through services like AI-powered fund management support in the future. It remains to be seen what positive changes XTEMPO's moves, aiming to become a true 'survival partner' for startups beyond just an investor, will bring to the startup ecosystem in the future.
