LOS ANGELES, CA, May 20, 2022 /24-7PressRelease/ — LIG Nex1 has joined forces with Hancom InSpace, an affiliate of Hancom Group, to make wearable robotics to assist individuals’ muscles widely available.
LIG Nex1 announced on the 3rd that it has signed a memorandum of understanding with Hancom InSpace for the implementation and joint commercialization of LEXO technology at Pangyo R&D Center in Gyeonggi-do on the 2nd.
