About Techlabs

Techlabs is a South Korean digital transformation company specializing in AdTech and developing lifestyle and wellness platforms. Founded in 2013 as Nextmatch, the company rebranded to Techlabs in 2020. It operates as a subsidiary of MetaLabs, which acquired it in 2018. The current CEO is Yuji-heon.

The company's business is structured around several key areas. A core component is its AdTech division, which provides data-driven performance and growth marketing services using AI to optimize advertising efficiency. This includes partnerships with major digital players like Meta and Naver. Techlabs also develops and operates a suite of mobile applications. Its portfolio includes popular social connecting apps like 'Amanda' and 'NeorangNarang', and the leading domestic fortune-telling service 'Jeomshin', which has over 13 million downloads. These platforms serve a broad consumer market, monetizing through in-app purchases and services.

Another significant focus is the medical and healthcare sector, where Techlabs offers specialized marketing solutions for non-reimbursable medical services, serving over 100 large hospitals in Korea. The company is expanding its reach by developing a K-medical tourism platform to attract overseas patients by providing comprehensive services from booking to accommodation. Techlabs has pursued an aggressive growth strategy through mergers and acquisitions, including the AI company Handasoft in 2020 and Ad-tech firm Metamarketing in 2022, to enhance its technological capabilities. The company has secured investments from venture capital firms like KTB Network and HB Investment to fuel its expansion into overseas markets such as Taiwan and Indonesia and to prepare for a future IPO.
