PHILADELPHIA, PA AND WILMINGTON, DE / ACCESS Newswire / April 1, 2026 / Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ:DVLT), an AI-driven data monetization, RWA tokenization, and Web 3.0 infrastructure company, and Demora Foundation, the Delaware-incorporated governing organization of the Demora Chain ecosystem (governed under JP3E Holdings Inc.), today announced the execution of a Technology Integration Agreement establishing Datavault AI as the formal AI data intelligence and RWA tokenization technology partner for the K-Entertainment & K-Wave Global Platform - the integrated K2Global + Demora Foundation ecosystem that converts Korean cultural IP, live entertainment, and K-Wave soft power into institutional-grade, on-chain financial products, deployed across three US Innovation K-Wave Cities: Atlanta (GA), Dallas (TX), and New York Tri-State.

K-WAVE AUDIENCE SCALE

The Agreement deploys Datavault AI's full enterprise AI stack - Data Vault^®, DataValue^®, DataScore^®, and Information Data Exchange^® (IDE) Digital Twin - as the AI data intelligence and RWA/VWA tokenization backbone of Demora Chain, purpose-built to score, value, credentialize, and tokenize K-Entertainment assets - including K-Pop concert revenues, K-Drama IP royalties, K-content digital rights, K-Beauty brands, and K-Food franchises - as yield-bearing instruments settled in DMR (apex RWA) and GMMT (VWA layer) on Demora's dual OP Stack Layer 2.

The K-Entertainment Opportunity - 200M+ Fans, $11B-$16B Annual Event Revenue, $3B+ Tokenizable Pipeline

The Korean Wave (Hallyu) is the most scalable cultural export engine in the world - and the foundational demand signal for the entire DVLT × Demora Foundation partnership. With 200M+ Hallyu fans across 156 countries generating over $40B in annual economic impact, K-Entertainment represents an institutional-scale, pre-qualified audience base no other RWA protocol can access.

DMR-LIVE Protocol - K-Entertainment RWA Tokenization Engine

Datavault AI provides the AI data intelligence layer that makes DMR-LIVE institutional-grade.
