About C.B.S.R

C.B.S.R — short for Creative Based Solution and Research — incubates Korean designer brands through showroom operations and exhibition business. Partnering with Korean fashion institutions, we select promising brands and guide them into global markets through international trade shows and distribution consulting.

Why go abroad, which show to join, who to meet, what to present, how much to earn — and what to carry forward once the show ends!

Not just preparing to exhibit, but building a lasting relationship with the market.

That is what CBSR believes exhibition business should be.

FAQ

What does CBSR do?

CBSR designs the direction of brands. We help creators truly understand their brand and translate their philosophy into the language of the market. Through branding and business consulting, together with showroom and exhibition business, we build a single growth structure that carries a brand from its beginning to overseas markets.

Can we hire CBSR only for trade show management?

Yes. But our strength is the integrated program — consulting from about two months before the show through post-show follow-up.

Which institutions has CBSR worked with?

CBSR has collaborated with Busan Creative Studio, Daegu Fashion Lab, the Fashion Biz Center, and the Korea Fashion Association, among many fashion, startup, and industry institutions in Korea and abroad. Our collaborations take many forms to fit each institution — brand coaching and consulting, exhibition planning, group participation of designer brands, buyer business, and overseas expansion support.

Do you work with overseas exhibition organizers?

Yes. CBSR works with overseas exhibition and showroom organizers planning the entry and group participation of Korean designer brands. Beyond simply bringing Korean brands to a show, we design and operate the entire exhibition business together — brand selection, pre-show preparation, on-site operations, buyer relations, and post-show management. We can also arrange Korean designer brand connections and group participation programs tailored to each organizer’s goals and conditions.
