SK Telecom Co. has partnered with US-based Joby Aviation in developing flying cars to help expand its foothold in urban air mobility (UAM) services.
South Korea’s top wireless carrier said they would form a regular consultative team with Joby Aviation to boost cooperation in introducing air taxis and creating “Mobility as a Service” (MaaS) in South Korea.
MaaS connects cars, connected car platforms, and business-to-customer services.
According to SK Telecom Co. CEO Ryu Young-sang, close cooperation with top global players is essential to becoming a leader in future industries, which is driven by UAM, robots, and self-driving vehicles.
South Korea’s long-term plan is to commercialize UAM services by 2025 to help overcome urban traffic congestion by using unmanned drone taxis, which the partnership could help boost.
SK Telecom has been collaborating with local firms and agencies to accelerate the development of UAM services and expand its services into other areas, such as tourism and emergency response.
