Scout Program Guidelines

At Han Bridge Capital, we are committed to building a supportive community of Koreans and allies backing Korean founders. Our Scout Program ensures we can build a supportive community of individuals who help us discover and invest in promising Korean-founded startups, helping foster a meaningful ecosystem.

How it works:

  1. If you refer a Korean-led company to us and we invest within 3 months of your referral, you will receive half of our carried interest (profit share) from our first investment in that company. If a company reaches out to us directly and we invest, the founders themselves will receive this benefit.

Guidelines:

  1. Please confirm with both Han Bridge Capital and the referred company that they are interested in connecting before making an introduction (double opt-in).

  2. If multiple scouts recommend the same company, only the scout whose referral leads to a successful investment will receive the carried interest.

Typically, our investments earn a 20% total carried interest. This means that for referred investments, the scout or the founders (if they reached out directly) will receive a 10% profit share.
