Two Korean platform plays just changed the opportunity map for founders.

Samsung created a board-direct robotics division targeting a market it expects to hit 257.5 billion dollars by 2035, tied to a 60-trillion-won physical-AI cluster and fresh talent from Boston Dynamics and top robotics labs. Separately, Kakao's PlayMCP developer platform grew from 15 to 461 registered servers in ten months as external AI models began calling it 80,000 times a day. We look at what each means for founders building in robotics and AI infrastructure.
