RIMA Entertainment, a leader in bridging the virtual and physical worlds through digital humans and AI, is proud to announce its participation in the ‘1st Culture Technology Alliance (Culture-driven AI Tech),’ hosted by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism (MCST) and the Korea Culture Technology Evaluation and Planning (KCTEP)!

Hello, this is RIMA Entertainment.

RIMA Entertainment, a leader in bridging the virtual and physical worlds through digital humans and AI, has joined the ‘1st Culture Technology Alliance (Culture-driven AI Tech),’ organized by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korea Culture Technology Evaluation and Planning (KCTEP)!

This participation marks a meaningful step forward in expanding RIMA Entertainment’s vision of ‘Everyone as a Creator’ and our technology-driven approach to content innovation into national-level R&D discussions.

[‘Culture Technology Alliance’: Where Field Demand Becomes Technology]

Launched on October 15, the Culture Technology Alliance is a public-private cooperative network established to connect real-world challenges in the content industry and the demands of creators directly to AI technology research and development (R&D).

A total of 190 institutions and 214 experts are participating across four subcommittees—▲ Game & Interactive, ▲ Video & Media, ▲ Music & Performance, and ▲ Story & Original IP—to identify innovative technological demands. The insights gathered will be actively reflected in the planning of new government R&D projects for 2028.

At the launch event, Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Choi Hwi-young emphasized the convergence of technology and art, stating, "The demands of the cultural field and the imagination of creators must lead the direction of AI technology development."

Beyond merely utilizing AI, RIMA Entertainment is pioneering a paradigm shift across the entire entertainment industry—from content planning and creation to real-world spatial experiences.

Our core business directions are as follows:

1. Artist Management Bridging the Digital and Physical Worlds Through digital humans and our proprietary AI composition technology (RIMA AI), RIMA Entertainment discovers and manages original digital artists across diverse genres, including the virtual girl band 'Starsis' and New Age pianist 'Hanwool.' Furthermore, rather than confining them to the digital realm, we combine motion capture and Physical AI to enable these artists to interact with audiences in real-world offline spaces.

2. Global Media Distribution Expanding the Reach of K-Content We supply high-quality K-music and media IP worldwide through numerous domestic and international distribution platforms and channels. Since 2025, we have established a global distribution network at MWC and overseas B2B markets (such as ChinaJoy and K-Digital Contents), accelerating our global expansion by driving multi-million-dollar partnership discussions in countries like Spain and Italy.

3. Immersive Game Production and Online-Offline Integrated Distribution We develop and supply rhythm-action games that integrate large-screen XR technology with real AI robotic instruments, delivering a differentiated sense of immersion to both B2B spatial venues (such as theme parks and exhibition halls) and global gamers.

4. AI Solutions for Creators Guided by the philosophy that technology should not replace art, but rather serve as a ‘co-creating partner,’ we provide customized AI infrastructure and content solutions that maximize creative efficiency for creators. This represents RIMA's distinct technological capability, externally validated through our selection as a supplier for the AI Voucher Support Project.

[A Tomorrow Created Together by Creators and Fans]

Through the ‘1st Culture Technology Alliance,’ RIMA Entertainment will represent the voices of creators on the ground and take the lead in ensuring that our globally proven AI infrastructure and distribution capabilities spread throughout the broader domestic content industry ecosystem.

We ask for your continued interest and support as RIMA Entertainment leaps forward at the forefront of the next-generation cultural industry driven by AI technology!

Thank you.
