Objective: The collaboration aims to integrate Silkwave’s satellite communication transmission technology with HKS’s premium media content to jointly expand the satellite converged media market.

Details of the Strategic Cooperation
According to the MOU, the collaboration will focus on several core areas:
-
Satellite Connected Multimedia Services: HKS’s high-definition video content will be integrated into Silkwave’s connected vehicle system, enabling the joint development of in-vehicle live TV applications. This leverages both companies’ strengths in content and technology.
-
“Satellite + 5G” Media Content Distribution: The partnership plans to use satellite broadcasting to offload popular live content during periods of 5G network congestion, aiming to enhance user experience and reliability.
-
Overseas and ASEAN Market Expansion: The two companies will jointly promote converged media services and launch new media platforms in Southeast Asia by leveraging Silkwave’s satellite data network (with coverage along the “Belt and Road” initiative) and HKS’s established media network.
