Seoul – June 19, 2023 –
Enterprise AI service company People and Technology Co., Ltd. (Co-CEOs Hong Sung-pyo and Lim Jin-soon) announced that on June 12, a high-ranking royal delegation from Sharjah, a member emirate of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), led by Sheikh Saud Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, visited the company’s headquarters to explore potential partnerships in digital innovation.
Sharjah is prioritizing digital transformation and infrastructure development on a national scale. Known as a global IT powerhouse, South Korea has become a key focus for collaboration with its tech enterprises. Sheikh Saud, who also serves as the Director of Sharjah Digital Authority, is particularly interested in the artificial intelligence (AI) sector.
Focus on AIoT Solutions and Hive Road AI
During the visit, the Sharjah delegation expressed keen interest in People and Technology’s AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) solutions, particularly the AI-based CCTV system, Hive Road AI.
Hive Road AI is an edge-based intelligent video surveillance system that performs real-time video analysis directly within AI-enabled CCTV cameras equipped with Neural Processing Units (NPUs). By eliminating the need for expensive video analysis servers, Hive Road AI provides a cost-efficient and scalable solution. The CCTV hardware, developed by Hanwha Vision, is globally recognized for its industry-leading technology, earning the trust of the Sharjah delegation.
Exploring Hospital Digitalization and AI Healthcare Integration
The delegation also explored People and Technology’s healthcare innovations, particularly its Hospital Digitalization platform designed to transform medical services. This aligns closely with Sharjah’s Digital Initiative policies, prompting discussions on future collaboration in AI-driven healthcare services.
Strengthening UAE-Korea Tech Collaborations
A company spokesperson stated:
"The UAE is dedicating substantial resources to building its digital innovation ecosystem and has shown strong interest in partnerships with South Korean tech enterprises and startups. Sheikh Saud and the Sharjah delegation’s visit highlights the global recognition of our technological capabilities and corporate value. Few startups were selected for their itinerary, underscoring the exceptional regard for our solutions."
The visit marks a milestone in People and Technology’s expansion into the Middle Eastern market, reflecting years of dedicated efforts. The company aims to solidify its role in Sharjah’s digital transformation projects while advancing its AIoT and healthcare solutions on a global scale.
Through this visit, People and Technology is poised to deepen its partnerships in the UAE, driving collaborative efforts to achieve innovative digital infrastructure and healthcare advancements in Sharjah.
