Meetple, which operates a random chat platform using video calls, signed a business agreement with ‘Korea AI Blockchain Convergence’ to revitalize the blockchain industry, including blockchain technology cooperation and the distribution of professionals, at Seocho-dong Center in the afternoon of the 7th.
Under the agreement, the two companies will work together to create synergy related to blockchain and revitalize the blockchain industry, focusing on the exchange of blockchain technology held by each company, as well as the distribution and business cooperation of blockchain experts.
The convergence, which recently changed its name, is being reborn as a specialized educational institution in related fields by providing education focusing on adding AI to blockchain from existing blockchain specialized educational institutions.
“We have a chance to create synergy through cooperation with Convergence Institute, a front-line educational institution for fostering blockchain professionals,” said CEO Kim Won-joong. “We will do our best to target the global market with strong allies in the blockchain industry.”
Since its establishment in 2018 as a non-profit foundation accredited by the Ministry of Science and ICT. By implementing various state-funded blockchain education such as Information Communication Planning and Assessment Service’s Innovative Growth Youth Talent Development Project, Korea Information and Communications Industry Promotion Agency’s Blockchain professional human resources curriculum and playground and Ministry of Employment and Labor’s Support projects for job creation tailored to local industries, it has established itself as an educational institution specializing in blockchain.
In 2020, it was selected as an institution to carry out the “Local ICT Innovation Square Project” by the Information and Communication Industry Promotion Agency and produced more than 270 professionals in blockchain education as well as artificial intelligence (AI) education. It is carrying out the same business in 2021 and is making efforts to revitalize AI and blockchain industries.
The Korea AI Blockchain Convergence Institute is training practical technical personnel through field-oriented training in artificial intelligence and blockchain fields, while actively supporting employment and start-up links in one-stop.
