Rockville, MD – On June 8th, Korea SMEs and Startups Agency (KOSME), its Korean Business Development Center (KBDC) and BioHealth Innovation, Inc. (BHI) will kick-off their second virtual US Market Entry program for Korean companies expanding to the United States.
Last summer, BHI and KOSME conducted a similar pilot program, which included five medical device and diagnostics companies.
This year’s competitively selected 5-member cohort includes medical diagnostics, medical devices, health AI and software companies. Over 25 Korea-based health-tech companies applied to the program.
The program will guide the cohort to adopt cultural business differences and communication methods, outline a go-to-market strategy, connect with strategic partners & key opinion leaders, and suggest product or prototype modifications. BHI’s Entrepreneurs in Residents (EIRs) mentor the cohort to achieve a successful US biohealth market entry.

Trial will assess safety and antibody responses of NVX-CoV2515 to the Omicron variant of COVID-19
Two-dose primary regimen of NVX-CoV2373 already demonstrated cross-reactive immune responses against Omicron and other variants
Novavax today announced the initiation of its Phase 3 strain change trial to determine if its Omicron variant specific vaccine, NVX-CoV2515 (Omicron BA.1 strain), induces superior antibody responses against the Omicron variant compared to its Wuhan prototype vaccine, NVX-CoV2373, in participants who have received either a primary (two doses) or booster (three doses) series of an mRNA vaccine. The trial will also seek to determine the antibody responses to a bivalent vaccine, containing both NVX-CoV2373 and NVX-CoV2515, administered in participants who have received a booster series of an mRNA vaccine.
