SoftBank Focuses On The Layout Of The Metaverse With AOS To Create A Brand-New Future
Recently, Softbank Ventures Asia publicly announced that it has begun to focus on Metaverse and invested in the AOS project. It will cooperate with AOS to connect and integrate more Metaverses in AI, NFT, robotics, and other fields, and carry the development of large-scale killer applications.
The enthusiastic investment in Metaverse has not subsided, but it has risen again. The technology giants have all entered the Metaverse. Facebook plans to fully transform into Metaverse before 2025, and will set up a product team to accelerate investment in VR/AR and the creator community; Bytedance, which has always believed in Striving for Miracles, merged Mutong Technology for 4 billion USD, and begin to lay out the Metaverse; Axie Infinity builds NFT games based on the Metaverse, subverting the traditional game mode and becoming a phenomenon-level game product; miHOYO, the developer of “Genshin Impact”, formed an AI scientist inverse entropy team, and self-developed Avatar Luming to explore the brain-computer interface. Through investment, miHOYO has successfully deployed the social Metaverse Soul; the Internet industry is renewing and iterating rapidly, and companies need to attach importance to meet unknown concepts and challenges or be left behind by the times.
In the Metaverse era, everything has virtual avatars. The concept of Metaverse seems to be still in the mist today, but the prelude to the new era has been opened, and it is closer than you think.
The popularization of the term Metaverse was cited from the novel Avalanche by American science fiction writer Neil Stephenson in 1992. In his book, he used the word Metaverse for the first time without foundation and described it as a parallel universe projected from the real world through technical means such as the Internet. However, anyone who has watched the movie “Ready Player One” by the great director Steven Spielberg should probably understand this concept. Like the “Oasis” in the movie, the company has created a realistic virtual world outside of the real world. Every player in the real world has another identity in the virtual world, establishes another social circle, and leads another life. Although the Metaverse is only a virtual world, its immersion is so vivid that you will think it is the real world and enjoy life in this new world.
AOS (Artificial Intelligence Operating System) is the first operating system developed by Canada Unicorn Park, based on the underlying blockchain technology to connect the Metaverse. By building a Metaverse bridge online, and using robots as an intelligent carrier offline to build an ecosystem between Metaverses and provide a new experience for integration with Metaverse and the real world.
Based on AOS, users could create an AI NFT that has autonomous consciousness and advanced self-learning capability; And it also gets influenced by the distributed personality database on the chain to build character, and gradually complete neural network-style self-learning and improvements. Most of all, the distributed character database is based on the “Book of Changes” and appropriately constructs the character of AI; users can inject their favorite characters, personalities, voices, etc., into their own AI NFT, and tame it to learn more skills. AOS encourages users to integrate more characters and personalities, combined with NFT to create different artistic values. The custom AI itself has NFT attributes. Users can customize the appearance of AI on the network, and can also authorize access to a third-party character customization system, such as specific character images and voices, and third-party NFT star voices and appearances, packaged in the form of NFT used for trading and collection.
AOS connects the first-generation physical carrier, the AI four-wheel driving robot Mars_1 with the Metaverse and the real world, creating a new user experience.
Mars_1 is a highly integrated artificial intelligence robot product. Its appearance is in the form of a four-legged driving robot dog. It adopts an original five-layer motion control technology and several technical indicators are in a leading position in the global industry. Mars_1 has integrated the Internet of Things, 5G, virtual reality/augmented reality, intelligent driving, swarm intelligence, and other technologies. Mars_1 will obey commands and gradually be closer to a dog and then become to a good assistant to humankind.
On the road to the Metaverse, AOS always hopes to leave a strong and colorful stroke in its own way. Connect the Metaverse through AI and map out the experience and lifestyle of the future. For the world that people dream of, high-intelligence AI coupled with linkage with robots will be an indispensable component of this era. As the aboriginal and basic units of the Metaverse, these virtual species based on AOS will continue to establish connections with us beyond human beings in the infinite space and time of the future, transcending the fetters of races.
Sun Zhengyi believes: “We are about to experience the biggest change in human history. AI will eventually replace human beings. This is not only reflected in knowledge but also in intelligence. This change will happen in this century, and then in the next 30 years, there is no doubt that our focus is on AI, intelligent robots, and the IOTs.” Based on this analysis and judgment, SoftBank has frequently carried out large-scale layouts in the fields of AI, intelligent robots, and IOTs. Start from all aspects to create a powerful robot empire. Today, SoftBank’s industries have completed the layout of the future of the new Internet field as Sun Zhengyi said in the past, and completed more than half of the investment of unicorn companies on a global scale, laying a foundation for the subsequent development of the IOTs in the world.
As a world-renowned “Animation Kingdom”, Japan has an irreplaceable influence in the global animation field. After half a century of development, the Japanese animation industry has formed an extremely large system, making Japan the world’s largest animation production and exporting country, and it also around animation IP to derive cultural and creative products, such as GK. With the development of smart technology, they also work hard in the direction of intelligence for GK. Headquartered in Japan, SoftBank has a unique geographical location and is deeply immersed in Japanese IP culture. This collaboration with AOS will further promote the combination of the GK industry and the AIindustry, and provide AOS with a steady stream of IP resources. Users’ favorite characters such as Luffy, Conan, Sailor Moon, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Inuyasha, etc., can inject their image and personality into AI to create your smart figure. Each AI figure is a unique individual, and different parameters also create different expressions and styles. At the same time, when users have more exchanges with AI, they will gradually become familiar with the user’s temper and preferences and adjust their apparent personality in real-time and dynamically making it infinitely close to the form that we want to see eventually.
The product made by a single company is not enough to be called a Metaverse but constitutes an ecological system. With the deep participation of users, if it is successful in collective efforts to build a more interoperable system, and it can be transformed into different layers, then it should be called a Metaverse. AOS is committed to becoming the link between the physical world and the virtual world, as a bridge between various Metaverses to connect the Metaverse and continue to build a new Metaverse ecology. This will be the top priority in the next stage of the development of the Internet after the mobile Internet.
What kind of world will mankind be in the future? SoftBank Asia and AOS have worked together because of the same concept for Metaverse and jointly created such a grand concept, standing at the forefront of the Metaverse economic tide, seizing opportunities, embracing the new future, and believing that with their win-win cooperation, they will give a perfect answer for the world.

UAE Institutional Leaders Convene in Abu Dhabi as Digital Asset Strategy Accelerates Across Global Finance

Global banks, asset managers, regulators and sovereign-backed institutions gather for the inaugural Digital Assets Forum Abu Dhabi (DAFME 1), reinforcing the UAE’s emergence as a global hub for institutional digital finance
Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates — May 13, 2026
Senior leaders from global finance, digital asset infrastructure, and regulatory institutions will convene in Abu Dhabi on May 13, 2026, for the inaugural Digital Assets Forum Abu Dhabi (DAFME 1) — a new institutional gathering focused on the accelerating integration of digital assets into regulated financial markets.
The launch of DAFME 1 comes at a defining moment for institutional adoption across the Gulf region. The Middle East and North Africa has rapidly emerged as one of the fastest-growing digital asset markets worldwide, supported by sovereign investment strategies, regulatory clarity, and large-scale financial innovation initiatives led by the United Arab Emirates.
As global financial institutions increasingly seek regulated environments for digital asset deployment, the UAE has positioned itself at the intersection of capital formation, technological infrastructure, and forward-looking policymaking.
Following three successful institutional editions of Digital Assets Forum in London — bringing together nearly 2,000 senior executives from banks, asset managers, hedge funds, and market infrastructure providers — the forum expands into Abu Dhabi amid growing global capital migration toward the region.
“Across our London editions, we have seen how regulatory certainty directly unlocks institutional participation,” said Victoria Gago, Co-Founder of Digital Assets Forum.
“What is taking place in Abu Dhabi and across the Gulf represents a structural shift in global finance. Capital formation, infrastructure development, and policy leadership are increasingly converging here. The UAE is demonstrating how governments and financial institutions can actively shape the future architecture of digital markets.”
Institutional Leadership and Confirmed Speakers
Confirmed institutional participants include senior executives from regulators, investment firms, custodians, and global digital asset platforms:
- Christoph Richter, Head of Digital Assets & AI — ADGM
- Sebastian Widmann, Head of Dubai — Komainu
- Karl Naim, Group Chief Commercial Officer — XBTO Middle East
- Yan Ma, Executive Director — Spartan Group
- Catrina Wang, General Partner — Portal Ventures
- Elliot Andrews, CEO — Aspen Digital
- Rachel Conlan, Global Chief Marketing Officer — Binance
Additional institutional speakers and sovereign ecosystem participants will be announced in the coming weeks.
Backed by Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM)
DAFME 1 is backed by Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) and will take place within Abu Dhabi’s international financial centre ecosystem.
Through its Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA), ADGM has established one of the world’s most comprehensive regulatory frameworks for virtual assets, providing structured licensing regimes for exchanges, custodians, asset managers, brokers, and institutional infrastructure providers.
The UAE’s broader national strategy — spanning central bank digital currency initiatives, tokenisation programmes, and public-private innovation partnerships — reinforces the country’s ambition to become a global capital marketplace connecting Europe, Asia, and Africa.
Sovereign wealth funds, regional banking groups, and institutional allocators across the region are actively evaluating:
- Tokenised real-world assets (RWA)
- Stablecoin and payment infrastructure
- Institutional digital asset funds
- Regulated custody and market infrastructure
—all within a government-supported and compliance-driven framework.
Key Institutional Themes
Digital Assets Forum Abu Dhabi will examine the strategic questions shaping institutional markets, including:
- UAE digital asset regulation in a global context
- Institutional portfolio allocation and alpha generation
- Stablecoins, payments, and CBDC developments
- Integration between traditional finance (TradFi) and DeFi
- Real-world asset tokenisation
- The evolution of crypto ETFs
- Liquidity, custody, and market infrastructure
- Institutional risk and governance frameworks
A Curated, Outcome-Driven Institutional Format
Digital Assets Forum Abu Dhabi is designed as a highly curated executive-level environment focused on decision-makers rather than retail participation.
The programme includes:
- Institutional main-stage discussions
- Closed-door executive sessions
- Dedicated 1:1 meeting areas
- Private briefing and partnership rooms
The forum’s objective is clear: institutional alignment, capital deployment, and infrastructure coordination for 2026 and beyond.
About Digital Assets Forum
Digital Assets Forum is a global institutional event series connecting traditional financial markets with digital asset innovation.
The Abu Dhabi edition marks the forum’s expansion into the Middle East following established editions in London.
The series is organised by the European Blockchain Convention, launched in Barcelona in 2018, now recognised as one of Europe’s leading platforms bringing together financial institutions, policymakers, and infrastructure providers advancing blockchain adoption in mainstream finance.

Operational Police Protective Services Announces High-Threat Security Division to Support Maryland’s Growing Event Industry
-
The law enforcement–led company aims to support critical infrastructure through specialized security services.
|
Pasadena, Maryland, 23rd February 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, As Maryland’s event industry continues to grow at a rapid pace, so do the security challenges that come with larger crowds, higher-profile venues, and increasingly complex risk environments. From music festivals and sporting events to corporate functions and private gatherings, event organizers across the region are facing heightened concerns around crowd control, targeted threats, and emergency response readiness. Traditional private security models, often limited in training and authority, are struggling to meet the demands of these evolving conditions, leaving a critical gap in protection for both attendees and stakeholders.
Recognizing this growing need, Operational Police Protective Services has announced the launch of its High-Threat Security Division, a specialized operational unit designed to support Maryland’s expanding event market with advanced, law enforcement-led protective solutions. Built on years of operational experience and public safety expertise, the division is structured to provide professional-grade security services capable of addressing elevated risk scenarios.
“Events today are larger, more visible, and more complex than ever before,” shared a company representative. “What we’re seeing now is a clear demand for security that goes beyond basic staffing. Our High-Threat Security Division was created to bring disciplined, proactive, and accountable protection to environments where the margin for error is extremely small.”
Operational Police Protective Services has long been known for its work providing armed security services, as well as coordinating off-duty police personnel for clients who require a higher standard of safety and professionalism. The new division builds on that foundation by introducing advanced threat assessments, strategic deployment planning, and personnel with direct law enforcement and tactical backgrounds who are trained to operate in high-pressure environments.
Unlike conventional security approaches, the High-Threat Security Division focuses on prevention as much as response. Teams are trained to identify vulnerabilities, monitor behavioral indicators, and work seamlessly with venue staff and emergency responders. This approach has already proven effective in urban environments, where demand for armed security and protective services continues to rise alongside the city’s revitalized event calendar.
As event organizers increasingly seek solutions that align with public safety standards, Operational Police Protective Services is positioning itself as a trusted partner for comprehensive protective services. The company’s emphasis on training, accountability, and operational transparency ensures that clients receive not only capable personnel but also clear communication and structured oversight before, during, and after each assignment.
With Maryland’s event industry continuing to expand and attract national attention, the demand for credible, high-level protection is expected to grow. Through their initiative, Operational Police Protective Services represents a strategic investment in meeting that demand, ensuring that growth in the region’s event economy is matched by an equally strong commitment to security.
About Operational Police Protective Services
Operational Police Protective Services (OPPS) is a professional, law enforcement–led security firm providing comprehensive protective solutions throughout Maryland, Virginia, and Delaware. Founded with a mission to deliver a higher standard of safety, OPPS specializes in armed security, off-duty police staffing, and customized protective services for commercial properties, events, government entities, and private clients.
