Metown Showcases EVOVA at ‘K-Startup Day @ Station F’ in Paris, Accelerating Its European Expansion

Hyper-realistic neural rendering AI startup Metown (CEO Dohae Lee) presented its 3D fashion-tech vision at “K-Startup Day @ Station F” held on October 29, 2025 (local time), at Station F in Paris, the world’s largest startup campus. The event, organized by K-Startup Center Paris (KSC Paris) under KOSME, marked the 140th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Korea and France and brought together Korean innovators, French founders, and European investors.

During the outbound session, Metown was selected as one of 11 Korean tech startups to pitch on stage and introduced “EVOVA,” its 3D neural rendering–based product digitization service. With a Gaussian Splatting–powered ultra-lightweight 3D engine, Metown demonstrated how real-world products can be transformed into ~3MB high-fidelity 3D assets and deployed across e-commerce, virtual showrooms, and VFX pipelines with near real-time interaction.

Metown emphasized that brands can build immersive 3D product pages without hiring dedicated 3D teams—reducing production costs while enhancing customer engagement. Its ability to accurately reproduce complex materials such as fabric and leather positions EVOVA as a strong fit for Europe’s detail-oriented retail and luxury markets.

This Station F appearance follows Metown’s participation in FaW Tokyo 2025 and Tech for Retail 2025, marking a milestone where the company validated its technology at the heart of the European innovation ecosystem. Metown is preparing to join Station F’s residency in 2026, using Paris as a strategic base for joint PoCs, pilot projects, and co-developed 3D commerce solutions with European partners.

CEO Dohae Lee stated, “Station F is essentially the core of Europe’s innovation network. Presenting EVOVA here allowed us to engage directly with the ecosystem and test our solution on a global stage,” adding, “We aim to grow into a leading 3D commerce infrastructure company that bridges K-fashion tech with the European retail landscape.”

Metown’s technologies have been advanced through major Korean government programs—including the Metaverse Lab Support Project under the Ministry of Science and ICT, the Ministry of SMEs and Startups, and the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. Looking ahead, Metown plans to expand global partnerships through CES 2026 and long-term engagement within the Station F ecosystem.
