Singtel will share its 5G and know-how experience with SKT throughout Asia-Pacific whereas SKT will present insights from its metaverse platform, ifland, in Korea as a part of the MOU.

This may contain the event of digital variations of locations in Singapore, customised avatars of locals and the organisation of unique occasions for Singtel clients.

“This partnership will help showcase the Singtel network’s ultra-low latency, high speed and stable connectivity which is critical to creating an optimal immersive experience in the metaverse,” stated Anna Yip, CEO of client at Singtel.

“Together with SKT, we will help drive innovation and unlock new digital use cases in ifland, creating growth opportunities for enterprises and enriching experiences for consumers. We’re excited to kick this off in Singapore and in time, expand across the region.”

The 2 firms say they can even discover collaborative alternatives in areas corresponding to quantum cryptography or superior information encryption to construct safer networks towards rising threats.

“Through cooperation with Singtel, we will be expanding our metaverse business into the Asian Pacific region,” stated Ha Min-Yong, chief improvement officer of SKT.

“We will work closely with Singtel to create success stories for our metaverse service in the global markets.”
