Galaxy Corporation Leads “K-Entertech” IPO Rush as Nasdaq Vice Chairman’s Surprise Visit Boosts Listing Prospects

Korean AI entertainment technology company Galaxy Corporation is drawing attention from Nasdaq, the heart of global capital markets.

 

On March 4, Bob McCooey, Vice Chairman at Nasdaq, visited Galaxy Corporation’s headquarters in Yeouido, Seoul, to review the company’s growth strategy and its potential pathway toward a U.S. listing. The visit is being viewed as a rare case in which a senior executive from a global capital-market institution directly visited a Korean “entertech” company to assess its competitiveness firsthand.



 

Galaxy Corporation recently demonstrated its growth potential as a prospective global public company through its latest performance results. The company posted KRW 126.0 billion in revenue in the first half of 2025, achieving over 200% year-on-year growth, and successfully returned to profitability over the same period. The market projects its full-year 2025 revenue to exceed KRW 300.0 billion, and Galaxy Corporation is accordingly being valued as a global unicorn with an enterprise value of over KRW 1 trillion.

 

Unlike conventional entertainment companies, Galaxy Corporation is positioning an “Enter-Tech” model—combining IP, AI, and robotics technologies—as its core strategy. Centered on “super IP,” it is building a structure that links content creation, technology platforms, and commercial expansion, aiming to reduce reliance on any single piece of content while securing technology-driven scalability.

 

Actor Song Kang-ho, a key artist of Galaxy Corporation, also attended the visit, drawing attention. Galaxy Corporation’s human capital—including global actor Song Kang-ho and global artist G-Dragon—is regarded as one of the company’s core competitive strengths.

 


Vice Chairman McCooey showed particular interest in Galaxy Corporation’s AI-powered K-POP robot project and its virtual IP strategy. Its flagship “More (The Day After Tomorrow)” project is a future-oriented culture-and-technology platform themed around the coexistence of life and death, aiming to build a new entertainment ecosystem where humans and digital beings coexist. This strategy is also seen as aligning with Nasdaq’s key evaluation criteria, including technology-based scalability and a sustainable growth model.

 


Meanwhile, the fact that a senior Nasdaq executive directly visited a Korean company is being interpreted as part of a process in which global capital markets are actively validating the potential and growth prospects of Korea’s entertech industry. Through this meeting, Galaxy Corporation is expected to further expand its connections with global capital markets and strengthen its presence on the international stage.
