Through this agreement, GG56 Korea will provide its technical support to the SIGNIS Organizing Committee in constructing a metaverse platform for the successful hosting of the 2022 Seoul SIGNIS World Congress which is planned to be held at Sogang University in Seoul from August 16 to 19, 2022, with the theme of “Peace in the Digital World.” Taking into consideration the travel restrictions caused by the global pandemic, the SIGNIS Organizing Committee decides to hold the 2022 Seoul SIGNIS World Congress in the metaverse, while having local events in Seoul as planned simultaneously. In this regard, the 2022 Seoul SIGNIS World Congress (SWC) will be the world’s first Catholic event to be held in the Metaverse, enabling many Catholics around the world to participate in and enjoy the events in real-time.
Besides conducting Catholic mass, meetings and voting on metaverse, the 2022 Seoul SIGNIS World Congress will also provide an exclusive and incredible opportunity where His Holiness Pope Francis will be giving his blessings to the attendees who participate in the SIGNIS World Congress opening ceremony. In addition, the 2022 Seoul SIGNIS World Congress will offer a unique opportunity of the virtual pilgrimage by embodying the major sacred Catholic sites of Korea on metaverse, allowing the participants to enjoy beautiful and realistic tours to the sites and understand universal yet cultural-specific Catholic teachings.
 
 
The organizing committee stated that the SIGNIS World Congress in the metaverse is expected to not only resolve cross-border travel restrictions amid the ongoing global health crisis by having a wider population of Catholics, journalists, and media officials across the world but allow them to participate in various sessions and programs and to communicate one another. Moreover, the Committee also added that the metaverse platform will enable participants to engage in various discussions with one another, transforming this event into a meaningful venue for sharing universal Catholic values as well as cultural heritage. Former Prime Minister Han Seung-soo emphasized that adopting the metaverse technology will showcase Korea’s willingness to embrace new innovations as one of the pioneers of the 4th industrial revolution. Finally, GG56 Korea expressed that they feel honored yet responsible for contributing to this event by providing its technical support in building the metaverse platform which can be a gateway to connect 1.34 billion Catholics worldwide.
