According to SM Entertainment on April 14, the two companies will use the MOU to secure multiple partnerships to strengthen their global competitiveness in the industry. One of these partnerships is the expansion of the Fanship platform currently offered on V Live.

The other way they will expand their global market reach is to improve its video content business. They will now showcase even more new video content to fans around the world. Part of this includes their new streaming service called Beyond LIVE, which will live stream concerts for fans globally. It will also broadcast pre-existing performances.
