AVITA Partners with MegazoneCloud to Co-develop Physical AI Business Models 

- Integrating AI avatars with autonomous Physical AI devices for deployment in retail, finance, manufacturing and public sectors -

AVITA Inc. (Headquarters: Meguro-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Hiroshi Ishiguro; hereinafter "AVITA") is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with MegazoneCloud (Headquarters: Seoul, South Korea; CEO: Doug Yeum), a leading AI-native cloud company, to jointly develop Physical AI business models.

Background and Purpose of the Partnership

 The signing ceremony took place at the MegazoneCloud’s office in Yeoksam-dong, Seoul, attended by Shogo Nishiguchi, COO & CFO of AVITA, and Doug Yeum, CEO of MegazoneCloud, along with other key executives. Through this partnership, AVITA's advanced AI avatar technologies will be combined with MegazoneCloud's robust cloud and AI infrastructure to develop and scale "Physical AI" services that operate autonomously in real-world environments.

About the Physical AI Services

 The collaboration will integrate AVITA’s customer engagement solution "AVACOM" and training solution "AvaTraining" with physical hardware. Moving beyond simple pre-programmed actions, these Physical AI devices will use AI to perceive their surroundings, make autonomous decisions, and seamlessly combine highly natural conversations with physical assistance. The two companies are currently exploring applications across various environments, such as unmanned checkout systems in retail stores and factory automation, to significantly reduce operational costs and transform businesses.
