Environmental startup VUS announced on the 15th that it signed a strategic business agreement (MOU) with Kakao Mobility for the digital transformation of the waste collection and transportation industry.
Through this agreement, the two companies will begin full-scale technical cooperation to improve the operational efficiency and control precision of waste collection vehicles. VUS plans to apply Kakao Mobility’s route optimization technology to its waste collection and transportation solution ‘MANGO’ and link it with path-finding APIs and future operation prediction-based APIs.
Through this collaboration, the two companies expect to achieve the following results: ▲automation and advancement of waste collection and transportation work ▲creation of ESG performance such as reduction of carbon emissions ▲expanding the supply of solutions to the public and private sectors.
VUS has been developing a smart collection system with AI-based dispatch optimization and real-time control functions, and through this, Kakao Mobility has secured a case where its technology infrastructure can be applied to the scalable ESG field.
Hwang Yoon-ik, CEO of VUS, said, “This collaboration is an opportunity to go beyond technological integration and promote the platformization of the entire waste collection industry,” and “Through our collaboration with Kakao Mobility, we will contribute to enabling more workplaces to transition to digital-based ESG management.”
