Hyundai Motor Group’s innovation centre to integrate Singtel’s 5G

Hyundai and Singtel signed an agreement to develop the advanced facility.

Telecommunications group, Singtel, and Hyundai Motor Group will collaborate to deploy 5G network solutions at the advanced manufacturing facility, Hyundai Motor Group Innovation Centre in Singapore (HMGICS).

In a joint statement, both firms signed an agreement to enhance HMGCIS, which includes an electric vehicle manufacturing facility, as well as provide uninterrupted internet connectivity in the centre’s quality control in manufacturing operations.

HMGCIS CEO Hong Bum Jung said the 5G solution will help Hyundai’s goal of becoming the first mobility innovation, “a meta-factory concept, a digital-twin of an actual factory, supported by a metaverse platform."

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
