UNION biometrics, a company specializing in biometric AI infrastructure security, announced on the 2nd that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with ACOTE Group, a Bangladeshi IT and AI solutions company, to enter the global security market.

Through this agreement, the two companies plan to combine UNION biometrics’ biometric technology and security solutions with ACOTE Group’s AI image processing and software development capabilities to target overseas markets—including the United States, the United Kingdom, and Singapore—with Bangladesh as their base.

ACOTE Group is a Bangladesh-based company that provides AI, machine learning (ML), software development, BPO, and digital transformation (DX) services. The two companies plan to expand the scope of their collaboration to encompass a full range of security solutions, including biometrics, AI video analytics, access control, and integrated authentication.

In particular, the strategy is to create synergies in the field of edge AI security by combining AI image processing technology with biometric authentication technology. The company plans to process video and authentication data generated on-site in real time and integrate it with access control and identity verification systems to meet the demands of public, military, and government security projects, as well as the infrastructure security market.

A company official said, “This agreement will serve as an opportunity to expand our biometric-based security technology into the global AI security market,” adding, “We will continue to explore joint business opportunities with ACOTE Group across various security sectors.”

Meanwhile, UNION biometrics is strengthening its business in sectors where demand for high-reliability security is growing, such as AI data centers, finance, the public sector, and industrial facilities.
