EverTreasure Introduces Art Investment Platform YEATU at Korea–China Venture Startup Summit
[FETV= Reporter Im Jonghyun] Shanghai — Cultural fintech company EverTreasure announced that it was officially invited as a representative Korean startup to the Korea–China Venture Startup Summit, held on January 7 in Shanghai.
The summit was positioned as a flagship event during President Lee Jaemyung’s state visit to China, designed to strengthen cross-border collaboration between the two countries’ startup ecosystems. Approximately 400 attendees—including senior government officials from both nations, Chinese unicorn founders, and global venture capital leaders—gathered to discuss future-oriented technology and investment partnerships.
EverTreasure was selected alongside leading Korean AI companies such as Lunit and MAUM.AI as part of the official startup delegation. At the event, CEO Everine Jo presented YEATU, EverTreasure’s global art investment fintech platform, emphasizing its clear financial identity—distinct from conventional art marketplaces or commerce-driven platforms.
Everine described YEATU as a global fintech platform redefining access to art and cultural content investment.
“Just as people stream content on Netflix without barriers, we are building an ecosystem where anyone, anywhere, can easily access and invest in cultural assets,” she explained. “By integrating our blockchain-based authenticity solution EverSeal and our AI-powered validation engine VALQ, we ensure both security and objectivity in art investment.”
She further outlined EverTreasure’s vision of becoming the world’s first banking service designed specifically for artists. During her remarks, Everine called for the early institutionalization of tokenized securities frameworks and expanded public–private collaboration leveraging government-backed cultural data—points that resonated strongly with policymakers and investors in attendance.
EverTreasure also unveiled its end-to-end value chain: discovering emerging global artists through its matching platform EverlynQ, structuring those creative assets into regulated investment products, and distributing them via YEATU. The model positions the company as an infrastructure provider rather than a simple intermediary.
The Shanghai summit marked another milestone in EverTreasure’s global expansion, following the establishment of its U.S. and U.K. entities. The company noted that the event served as a critical validation of its technology and business model in one of the world’s most influential cultural and financial markets.
“It was a great honor to introduce YEATU at a venue receiving attention from the leaders of both nations,” Everine said. “With VALQ and EverSeal as our core technology engines, we aim to build a truly borderless global art finance ecosystem—one where capital flows freely through YEATU.”
