BIGC Secures Bridge Investment for Global Entertainment OS Expansion

SEOUL, South Korea, Oct. 06, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- BIGC, a global entertainment tech company, has secured its first bridge investment of 2026 from Daesung Private Equity and Now IB Capital on September 18, 2026. This investment, valued at an undisclosed amount, reflects the company's explosive growth, with 3.9 million members across 232 countries and territories. International users account for 74% of its total membership, highlighting the company's strong global presence.

BIGC operates the All-in-One Digital Venue platform, which integrates world tours, ticketing, live streaming, commerce, and fan data analytics into a single, user-friendly solution. This platform has enabled the company to deliver strong performance across key metrics. For instance, the company has recorded a 158% increase in revenue over the previous year, generating KRW 11.2 billion. Revenue has more than doubled for three consecutive years, with an average annual growth rate of more than 700% over the past three years.

The company's success is underpinned by its differentiated technological capabilities. BIGC has applied ultra-low-latency real-time communication technology to reduce live streaming delays to approximately 0.5 seconds. During a major awards ceremony, the company successfully handled massive traffic, including 3 million users per second and 45 million users over a three-week period, through AI-based predictive traffic control technology. This technology reduced server costs by 90%, demonstrating the company's technological prowess at a level comparable to leading global startups.

BIGC is now stepping up its global market expansion with an "Entertainment OS" powered by 1.3 billion fan data points. The company has acquired and integrated the fandom community blip, K-pop Radar, which has accumulated 1.3 billion proprietary global fandom data points. Based on this data, BIGC is developing an Entertainment OS capable of predicting and supporting target concert cities and revenue opportunities for artists. The company has also secured an exclusive Korean distribution agreement with Universal Music Korea, expanding its reach beyond K-pop to global pop IPs while pursuing digital transformation (DX) and AI transformation (AX) across the broader entertainment industry.

The company's integrated solution has proven to be highly effective, with an 81% repurchase rate among users who have made at least one purchase. In addition, the company has evolved from primarily providing one-off concert streaming services to securing contracts that comprehensively manage entire world tours. These integrated world-tour contracts now account for 75% of total revenue, establishing a stable B2B revenue structure.
