  딜리버스 operates 딜리래빗, an AI-driven logistics service that applies a deep-learning Dynamic Clustering technique to optimize delivery routes based on daily distribution and delivery-impacting data. The service lets e-commerce companies keep their existing warehouses while offering guaranteed same-day arrival—typically within seven hours in Seoul and the greater metropolitan area—at costs comparable to regular parcel rates. 딜리버스 says its approach halves the delivery process compared with traditional couriers, enabling fast delivery and returns at lower cost. Since launching 딜리래빗 in May 2022 the company has signed about 40 client companies and achieved over 98% on-time delivery for overall volume. In the first half of this year, revenue more than doubled year-over-year. Notable clients include 지그재그 (Zigzag), 젝시믹스, 올웨이즈, 무신사 스튜디오, 리본즈, and 온누리 스토어. The company plans to use new funding to build a large automated logistics hub, further develop its AI-based arrival-guarantee optimization systems, and expand the 딜리래빗 service area.

AmazeVR has a joint venture with SM Entertainment to launch Studio A in South Korea and plans to produce concerts with K‑pop artists. The startup intends to hire AI, Unreal Engine and VFX engineers to advance its technology and broaden content. It reported about 75% attendance on its Enter Thee Hottieverse tour (roughly 4.3x typical theater occupancy) with $20–$25 ticket prices. The company is headquartered in Los Angeles with offices in Seoul and a team of 62. Its recent financing activity has brought total funding to approximately $47.8 million. AmazeVR builds VR concert experiences and content-generation tools that let users attend immersive concerts as avatars and interact with other fans. The company has developed proprietary 9K cameras and software that automate complex Unreal Engine–based VFX and can run more than 100 headsets simultaneously. AmazeVR is rolling out its first commercial VR concert with Megan Thee Stallion in select AMC Theatres and has secured a second A-list artist while finalizing a third. The startup plans to scale content creation and release new VR concerts weekly by 2024 to both in-theater and at-home audiences. Leadership says the company pivoted fully into VR concerts in late 2019 and has grown its team from 12 employees at the start of 2021 to 41 across Hollywood and Seoul. AmazeVR intends to use the new capital to hire additional headcount as it pursues broader adoption of VR and metaverse experiences. AmazeVR is a virtual concert platform that creates high-quality VR music content and enables artists to connect with fans through immersive technologies. It offers an end-to-end solution—from ultra-high-resolution custom cameras to cloud-based creation tools and social interaction features that let users experience concerts as avatars. Founded in 2015 and based in Los Angeles, CA, the company produced a debut immersive concert with Roc Nation duo Ceraadi and has several other concerts in the works. AmazeVR raised $9.5M in a funding round led by Murex Partners. The round included participation from We Ventures, Bass Investment, Dunamu & Partners and existing investors Mirae Asset Venture Investment, Mirae Asset Capital, Partners Investment and Timewise Investment. The company intends to use the funds to expand operations and broaden its business reach.

The company has opened an 11,000-square-foot entertainment hub at Incheon International Airport that mixes meditation and relaxation VR videos, a performance stage for immersive musical performances, and an indoor playground. AmazeVR has partnerships with immersive studios Atlas V and Felix & Paul Studios and says it aims to broaden distribution offline to accelerate consumer VR adoption. The company launched last May with backing from Korean hardware manufacturer LG and leverages entertainment industry connections to develop unique VR experiences. Financially, AmazeVR recently secured an additional $2.5 million commitment, bringing its total funding to around $9 million. AmazeVR operates a cloud-based VR content and production platform that stitches 360-degree video, provides editing and production tools for creators, and builds its own cameras for capture. The company sells VR content via a subscription priced at $7 per month (three-month bundles $18, six-month bundles $24) and has more than 1,000 subscribers. AmazeVR already offers about 20 interactive VR experiences and shares revenue from subscriptions and individual downloads with video creators. The company is partnering with LG U+ to host content and use AmazeVR’s proprietary tools to produce and roll out up to 1,500 new VR experiences on LG’s service. Founding executives are former Kakao leaders (JB Lee, Steve Lee, Jeremy Nam, and Steve Koo) and the team is active in Los Angeles to connect with talent for additional productions. Strategic backing from LG Technology Ventures and others underpins the company’s push to scale its content library and consumer adoption.
