Company Overview
(Last updated Aug., 2005)
Our mission is "The Integration of Global Knowledge" By integrating knowledge scattered throughout the world our users can finally access and utilize it.
AgentSoft's mission "The Integration of Global Knowledge" has a two-step. As a first step, we need to create regional marketplaces that gather knowledge from the regional users, for example, www.happycampus.com for Korean users and www.happycampus.com.cn for Chinese users. We knew that the regional marketplace is the most effective method to extract knowledge sleeping in personal computers or desk drawers. We believed that any kind of valuable knowledge can have a price. As you can see HappyCampus.com has more than 2 million users and 1.8 million documents or digital products.
The second step for "The Integration of Global Knowledge" is establishing the worldwide marketplace between regional knowledge marketplaces. The worldwide marketplace enables the knowledge to move from one regional marketplace to others. For example, knowledge in www.happycampus.com (written in Korean) can be translated into Chinese for www.happycampus.com.cn.
As a result of 5 year endless challenges and endeavors, HappyCampus.com has become the biggest knowledge marketplace in Korea. In the meantime we set up the marketplace for Chinese and Japanese users. In addition, we are planning to set up Taiwan and Spanish marketplace in this year. Our marketplaces will expand the regions continuously. AgentSoft obtain
