HTCR HeartCore Enterprises Inc

HeartCore Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq: HTCR) (“HeartCore” or “the Company”), a leading enterprise software and data consulting services company based in Tokyo, announced plans to expand its Go IPO consulting services into South Korea.

Recognizing the strong and growing demand from Asia Pacific-based companies seeking to list on a major U.S. exchange, the Company launched a sales and marketing initiative across the broader Asia-Pacific region, starting with a referral program with established partners in South Korea. To that end, HeartCore plans to engage Thomas Yi, a global entrepreneur and a private investor at Cross Border Associates (CBA) in South Korea. With more than 30 years of cross-border transaction experience around M&A, corporate and business development, global marketing, and operations management, Thomas and his global consulting firm have helped early-stage companies from the incubator and accelerator phase all the way up to an IPO. HeartCore, in partnership with Thomas and his global consulting firm, will be hosting other U.S. professionals as part of an IPO seminar event in South Korea in May 2025.

“Given the value proposition of our Go IPO services, we have started to attract interest beyond Japan, extending into the broader Asia-Pacific region,” said HeartCore CEO Sumitaka Kanno. “In addition to our partnership with Thomas and CBA, our team is actively engaged in serious discussions with other companies across South Korea and the Asia-Pacific region, who view U.S. listings as a highly appealing alternative for raising capital and liquidity events. Finalizing these opportunities would mark our entry into new regions beyond Japan, creating additional deal flow and unlocking potential for HeartCore to further enhance its financial profile. Our team’s ability to support capital raising efforts sets us apart from competitors and positions us to continue capturing new opportunities.”
