Episode Description:
Naver is exporting its entire robotics platform to Saudi Arabia — and Seoul's government is racing to make it happen.
Naver plans to launch its outdoor delivery robot in Riyadh this November, following a June memorandum of understanding with a Saudi reconnaissance-technology firm. The rollout combines delivery robots with indoor service robots under one integrated system. Seoul's government is fast-tracking cooperation talks to help Naver move first in the Gulf robotics market. The deal could position Korean robotics companies as key players in a new wave of Middle East smart-city projects.
