Ecomice

What Ecomice does

Ecomice (에코마이스 주식회사) is a privately held Korean MICE Digital Transformation (DX) specialist founded in 2009 and headquartered in Seoul. The company provides end-to-end event solutions covering planning, production, and operation for international conferences, government forums, exhibitions, and metaverse-based virtual events, organized around four integrated service pillars: MICE (event operations), CONTENTS (event content and programming), PLATFORM (digital and metaverse event platforms), and EDUCATION (professional training programs such as WHO-supported biologics training and the Hwaban Group K-Science Talent Academy).

The underlying technology stack combines traditional event management know-how with a digital platform layer that supports metaverse and hybrid event delivery; the firm has not disclosed proprietary AI/ML models, patents, or APIs, and the platform is positioned as an integration/interoperability differentiator rather than a standalone SaaS product. Customer base is concentrated in Korean government ministries (Ministry of Science and ICT, Ministry of Land/Infrastructure/Transport) and multilateral institutions (UN, WHO, ISO, APEC, P4G, GEM), with a smaller set of corporate clients including Hwaban Group and NRP X NEXEED.

Ecomice makes money through project-based professional services fees for event planning and operation, recurring platform/hosting revenue from the metaverse PLATFORM pillar, and fees for structured EDUCATION/training programs. Pricing is custom per project, not publicly disclosed, and go-to-market is direct via inbound inquiry, portfolio-driven sales, and partnerships with government agencies and international organizations. The firm is led by Representative Director Hong Hweijin (홍회진), operates without disclosed institutional investors or funding rounds, and has been actively delivering projects through 2024–2025 (including AI-BioX ConfEx 2025, APEC SME Innovation Forum 2025, and the WHO-supported GTH-B program).
