Workers High Wins AI Innovation Award at NextRise 2025

Workershigh, which operates the space retail platform Flagshop, garnered attention by winning an Innovation Award in the AI sector at 'NextRise 2025', Asia's largest startup fair held at COEX, Seoul last June. In a fierce competition where only 30 companies out of over 700 participants received the honor of a final award, Workershigh was recognized for Flagshop's unique technology and market potential. Workershigh, invited as a startup selected by Korea Development Bank, explored various cooperation opportunities through 1:1 meetups with major investors and corporations during the event. Particularly, the real-time demo using Flagshop equipment installed on-site vividly showcased the efficiency of unmanned space operation and the differentiation in user experience design, receiving keen interest from on-site officials and investors. Currently, Flagshop is leading smart space retail at over 2,000 locations nationwide, including offices, hospitals, hotels, and commercial facilities. While expanding its media business centered on the advertising platform 'Flagmedia', it is also evolving into a data utilization model based on smart spaces, presenting a blueprint for future retail. An official from Workershigh emphasized that this Innovation Award is a result of Flagshop being officially recognized as a next-generation retail platform that integrates space, technology, and media, going beyond a mere distribution channel. Moving forward, they expressed their ambition to enhance the status of K-retail by showcasing competitive and innovative space-based service models not only domestically but also in the global retail market.
