The signing ceremony was held prior to the "Policy Roundtable for Korea-U.S. Physical AI Cooperation and the Creation of an AI Industry Innovation Ecosystem" at the National Assembly. The ceremony coincided with ongoing discussions regarding strengthening the national competitiveness of the AI semiconductor industry and expanding global technology cooperation.

Through this cooperation, the two companies intend to explore a collaborative framework across a wide range of areas, including joint research and development in Edge AI Computing, potential commercialization of AI semiconductor-based solutions, business development opportunities across target industries, and joint business development for domestic and overseas customers.

In particular, this cooperation is significant because, through it, the parties intend to build a Korea-based AI product connecting overseas core semiconductor technology with domestic productization for global supply.

Together, Blaize and SPHERE AX plan to develop a next-generation physical AI solution targeted at the global market by combining Blaize's AI semiconductor technology, optimized for physical AI, with SPHERE AX's core software expertise, including its vision AI. The jointly developed solution is expected to be applied across various sectors, including smart cities, smart factories, industrial safety, security, robotics, and mobility, making a meaningful step in Korea-U.S. cooperation in the physical AI sector.

Beginning with this strategic partnership, the partners intend to work toward establishing an AI semiconductor-based product development and production system in Korea and actively contribute to strengthening Korea's AI industry competitiveness and expand the global supply chain by linking their efforts with the government's AI semiconductor industry promotion policies and Korea's advanced manufacturing industries. Through its engagement with SPHERE AX, Blaize recognized the company's technology capabilities and growth potential in the Korean market, and both companies intend to build their collaboration over the long term.
