LayerX Inc. is pleased to announce that it has signed a memorandum of understanding on a strategic partnership with MUFG Bank, Ltd. In addition to the Series B funding announced on September 1, 2025, the two companies will begin exploring collaboration to achieve organizational transformation and create new businesses using the generative AI platform “Ai Workforce” developed by the AI/LLM business, in addition to their existing collaboration on the “Bakraku” business.

LayerX, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc., and MUFG Bank have been collaborating for a long time since their blockchain collaboration in 2019.
