OVIAR and SOiVA have announced their intent to launch B5G6G Telecom. Beginning in January 2024, B5G6G Telecom will lead development in Gangwon Province, South Korea of a local resilience system. The system will be the first of over 250 regional resilience systems to be built across South Korea, forming one of the world’s most advanced communications and computing technology platforms.

“B5G6G Telecom will unite SOiVA’s advanced technology with OVIAR’s global experience in building resilience systems and networks,” said Michael McDonald, a CEO at OVIAR. “Working together, we can advance South Korea’s leadership in telecommunications, big data, the internet of things (IoT), AI and digital currency.”

SOiVA previously partnered with the Government of South Korea to make the nation’s customs systems more efficient and effective. SOiVA’s TTA (Telecommunication Technology Associations) standard and technology are central to B5G6G Telecom’s plans to advance South Korean resilience through next-generation distributed collectively intelligent (DCI) grids.

B5G6G Telecom will build the new DCI grid platform in South Korea while exploring opportunities to expand the platform to the United States and other nations via the Alliance for Global Resilience and Regeneration (AGRR). The grids will enable powerful, bottom-up collaboration and the deployment of new communications technologies.

“B5G6G Telecom represents a bold leap forward by SOiVA, OVIAR and our global partners in building out human-centered platforms that integrate rapidly advancing telecommunications,” said Chairman Kim, SOiVA. “The net effect will be to make Korean cities smarter and more resilient.”
