If you come to the States, it is hard to find hard worker and smart people like you, but the key problem is a lot of Koreans are too humble. They limit their potential. If you just stick with that attitude, you cannot do nothing.

I'm in San Francisco at EO House where entrepreneurs are living together and doing amazing things. Today I'm going to ask some of them to give me their best elevator pitch in 1 minute. Can you introduce yourself?

Yeah, my name is Ji.

Can you give me your best elevator pitch in 1 minute?

Sure.

So I'm actually a founder of ScanMyPills. ScanMyPills is basically, we are helping caregivers out there to help their loved ones taking care of medication. So I started this problem back in like last year of August, and realized that my grandpa went to ER twice last year because of medication problems. And because of medication problem, I was like, there must be a better way to solve this problem. So what I done is create ScanMyPill. It's an iOS app. And what it does is you scan the pill and it generates all the digitization. And after you digitize all the medication, it could check the interaction. It could also remind you.. And this helps because they're gonna— the doctor is gonna ask, "Hey, what kind of medication are you on?" You'll be able to answer right away and you'll have logs so that you'll be able to answer all sorts of questions the doctor asks. When did you take it? When did you take it out? So that's like the ScanMyPill, the gist of it. And yeah, I'm helping the 1.5 million people out there who goes to ER every year. So I'm trying to reduce that number.

That's incredible. So people can find you on the App Store?

Yes, iOS app.

Hi, so my name is Jordan, and I'm the founder of Vizcom. Okay, so a lot of people don't realize that the world around us started out as drawings. So we kind of help people turn their drawings into physical products, right? So imagine, you know, things that stay on your screen. We allow people to essentially hold their ideas, right? So going from paper to production, So you have a drawing of a shoe, you want to see that shoe be made in the real world, we kind of build tools to accelerate that process. So yeah, basically allowing people to hold their ideas. Great, awesome.

That's incredible. Who are you targeting?

Can I ask that?

I would say like kind of people that are designing things in the physical world, right? So like cars, shoes, different kinds of furniture, things of that nature, right? Anything that has to eventually become real, right? I think, you know, As visual fidelity no longer becomes the signal of effort, you gotta ask yourself, it's like, okay, well then where does the signal go? And it goes into the real world. It's like, okay, not how realistic can you make it look, but how real can you actually make the object? So we kind of build tools that help people make their things actually physical. So yeah.

That's awesome. Thank you very much.

My name is Songman Cho. I'm from Korea. I'm making a game, AI native game to teach kids how to use AI. I've been doing some things in the AI field. I used to be an AI researcher in the Intel and then Seoul National— Seoul Asan Medical Center. And I was really wondering how to teach the kids how to use AI, how to leverage AI. Because especially in the Bay Area, the parents, they got so much FOMO from the AI because their peers laid off from the AI because of the AI. So I decided to make a game. And that game helps to teach kids how to use AI. So there are big problems in there. And then they should ask some questions to the NPCs. Every NPC in there, they're AI agents. So by doing some questions and then getting answers, then they can leverage their talent.

My name is George, and I'm from China. I'm currently an entrepreneur in the AI for education sector. Um, so I'm currently building an AI voice dictation tool plus, um, AI education tool. So it happens in your workflow and it is not a standalone learning. I have a message for those non-native speakers who are entering into the US market, either want to find a job here or looking into selling into the US market. So have you ever had challenges in terms of making yourself feel professional when communicating with others, like either you are speaking or sending messages? We have a tool here to help you to send effective professional messages in English. You can either speak in English or speak in your mother tongue, and you'll get ready to send English. And afterwards, you may also practice the exact sentences that you spoke for pronunciation, word choice, and communication skills that would help you to succeed in the US market. So we are building I Love Flow. Hope you could enjoy it.

Wow, you nailed it.

Good job.

Hey, I'm KJ from Tokyo. Very nice to meet you guys. I'm making a new social consumer app for the teenager in US. It's an anonymous app and voting who is the best person in this class or who is the funniest person in this class. So everybody adds a voice note, voice memo, and the voice turned to be very funny. It's like, "You look super cute," or something like that. And yeah, try to make someone fun. Of course, I have the 13-year-old daughter, and she will go to New York from this September. So I try to make that app try to make her smile even far from Tokyo, far from San Francisco. So yeah, that's why I'm making this new Next.Bio app for teenagers.

That's really cool. Would you say it's for entertainment purposes then?

Yeah, try to make people fun with the alternative new communication layer, not like a real but like anonymous. For entertainment.

Awesome.

Can you introduce yourself?

Hi, I'm founder of EO. My name is Taehyung Kim. Nice to meet you.

Can you tell me a little bit more about EO House?

EO House is our corporate hacker house. Hacker house is founder house. In here, over 10 founders are living together, working together, building something together that can change the world.

You have so many smart and talented people here, including yourself.

Thank you.

We just heard a lot of elevator pitches. How do people come to find EO House?

It's only referral-based. People already knew me or our alumni can recommend other founders. So it's very exclusive community. Only the founders who bet their life to build something can join our community.

What inspired you to kind of start EO House?

To be honest, to save money. Silicon Valley is the heart of world tech innovation, but It is brutally expensive. So a lot of immigrant founders come to the States. But if you want to one bedroom, it cost us like over $4,000, $3,000. So it looks gorgeous. But if you imagine living 16 people in this Hacker House, it's really messy.

Yeah, but I think it's really cool that you're giving people opportunities, like you said, people who might not have money but have great ideas. Is there anything else you want people to know about EO House?

I'm a super Korean Korean, so I only grew up in South Korea. And if you watch this video, my English is not that good, but I just came here 3 years ago to build a global company because, you know, especially due to AI, world is getting much, much smaller. So if you run your business, but if you don't build global company from day one, you will lose your competence. So yeah, I came here and I wanted to inspire more young people to build something global because Koreans are super smart and they work hard. If you come to the States, it is hard to find hard worker and smart people like you. But the key problem is a lot of Koreans are too humble. They limit their potential. Asian culture is very introverted, but if you just Stick with that attitude. You cannot do nothing.

Can you give people one piece of advice? A lot of the subscribers are trying to learn English, maybe business English, wanting to live and work in the US. Any advice you can give them?

English is important, but more than that, if someone gives you opportunity, you should pay back. So credit and building trust is the most important thing in business and career development. So if your language is limited, I think it is okay, and also it takes time to make it better. But if you lose your credit and trust, your client and your boss will never hire you and never give you additional opportunities. So if you can bring a good outcome, even though your English is limited, they will give you better opportunities.

Excellent advice. Yeah, just go for it.

Yeah, just go for it. I started learning English when I was 30. So it's quite late, and I wasn't a good student in high school and middle school and even in college. But I think the best way to improve your English is, yeah, you should know why learning English matters. And second is just change your environment. I watched Tyler's video, How to Improve Your English Fast. You should change people you meet and your environment. For example, You shouldn't watch Korean content for a while. And also, if someone sends you Kakao message in Korean, you just should reply it in English. Your friends will blame you, but just do it. Don't speak Korean for a while. But without knowing why, it is hard to execute. So having your own why is the most important thing.

Thank you so much.

Yeah, thank you.
