KES 2026: Five Companies in the Spotlight at the FKCCI French Pavilion
From October 13 to 16, 2026, the FKCCI brought together GenesInk, ID4US, Thélyos, TiHive, and Voltify at the French Pavilion of the Korea Electronics Show (KES) at COEX in Seoul, showcasing French innovation at an exhibition that welcomed 70,000 visitors.
Over four days, the French Pavilion provided the five participating companies with a space to showcase their technologies, meet Korean industry stakeholders, and explore new opportunities for commercial and industrial cooperation.
Through demonstrations and discussions with professional visitors, GenesInk, ID4US, Thélyos, TiHive, and Voltify highlighted the diversity of their solutions and expertise. Their collective presence helped raise their visibility among potential partners and foster connections within Korea’s technology ecosystem.
To support these efforts, the FKCCI organized 12 B2B meetings at the Pavilion, complemented by numerous spontaneous encounters throughout the exhibition. These exchanges enabled the companies to introduce their offerings to business contacts, better understand market needs, and identify opportunities for collaboration.
Located in COEX Hall A, the French Pavilion served as a meeting point for innovative companies and professionals seeking new technologies, combining visibility, demonstrations, and business opportunities.
By supporting these companies at KES 2026, the FKCCI continues its mission to help French businesses develop in the Korean market and connect the two countries’ business ecosystems. In a year marking 140 years of France-Korea diplomatic relations and the FKCCI’s 40th anniversary, the French Pavilion illustrated the role of innovation in bilateral exchanges.
