Vdigm Inc. (CEO Youngwan Kim), a member of the NVIDIA Inception program, announced that it was selected for the '2025 Global Enterprise Collaboration Program (ENUP)' jointly promoted by NVIDIA and the Ministry of SMEs and Startups.
The 'Global Enterprise Collaboration Program' is a government-led collaborative project that supports technological collaboration between leading global companies and promising startups to jointly develop innovative products and services and actively support overseas market entry. With this program selection, V-Dime will actively utilize NVIDIA's cutting-edge AI technology and global network to accelerate the technological advancement and global market expansion of its core service, 'TIH – AI NPC Service'.
V-Dime is currently developing an innovative 3D avatar-based AI NPC service that combines generative AI and agentic AI technologies, and is aiming to launch in the North American market in July.
It is receiving a lot of attention, especially in the virtual streamer and fandom market, and the humanoid robot market, and it allows users to easily create 3D avatars with their own photos or existing 2D characters, and full motion tracking is possible through a webcam, realizing high-quality virtual streaming at a low cost. It also learns the activity data of actual virtual streamers to create AI NPCs, and supports continuous emotional communication with fans even in offline environments.
“By being selected for this Enup program, Vdaime’s technological prowess and global expansion potential have once again been recognized,” said Vdaime CEO Kim Young-wan. “Through close technical collaboration with NVIDIA, we will further accelerate the innovation of TIH services and the speed of global expansion.”
Meanwhile, Vdaime is preparing to sign an agreement with NVIDIA for a collaborative project on AI NPC for humanoid robots in 2025 through this Enup program, and plans to launch an AI NPC motion platform for humanoid robots using NVIDIA COSMOS, Omniverse, and Isaac GR00T platforms. In addition, it is partnering with ShopFanpic, a virtual streamer MCN, and is actively pursuing cooperation with local partners in North America, thereby fully implementing its global expansion strategy.
In 2022, V-Dime was selected for the TIPS program, a private investment-led technology startup support project of the Ministry of SMEs and Startups, and has been expanding its customer base every year since then through the AI voucher support project. In March 2025, it will establish a local corporation in the United States and is preparing a Kickstarter campaign for full-scale entry into the North American market.
