From Seoul to the World: Astra’s Korea-First Strategy

“AMS Accelerator demonstrates Astra’s conviction in Solana’s potential to redefine global fintech,” said Jamie, Head of Partnership at Astra Fintech. “We’re particularly excited to support Korean innovators who are pushing boundaries in critical areas like Asset Issuing & Launching, Liquidity Providing, Programmable Payment, and Onchain Stock & Option Trading – these will be key focus areas for AMS’s selection criteria. Korea’s vibrant blockchain ecosystem is the ideal launchpad for this initiative, and we’re committed to providing both capital and strategic expertise to help these projects succeed at scale.”
