Derivation Chain

Step 1 Future Agriculture AI & Robotics Open Innovation
Step 2 Agricultural AI startup talent shortage
Step 3 Agricultural AI practicum/intern matching
Step 4 Performance-based hiring conversion recommendations

Problem

AI and robotics startups participating in Daedong's Future Agriculture Open Innovation program take an average of 3-6 months to hire AI engineers who understand the agricultural domain. Meanwhile, students in agricultural and AI departments struggle to find hands-on AI practicum opportunities in agriculture, resulting in less than 10% employment conversion rate in the field after graduation.

Solution

Match agricultural AI startups' practicum projects (smart farm sensor data analysis, drone image processing, etc.) with university students' skill profiles. Automatically track performance metrics (code contributions, project completion rate) during the practicum period and generate a hiring conversion recommendation score upon completion.

Target: Agricultural AI and smart farm startups (5-20 employees), agricultural college and AI department career centers
Revenue Model: 300,000 KRW (~$225) per intern match from the startup side, 8% of annual salary upon successful hiring conversion, free for universities
Ecosystem Role: Education
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
