Let $Lambda$ be a finite-dimensional algebra over a fixed algebraically closed field $mathbf{k}$ of arbitrary characteristic, and let $V$ be a finitely generated $Lambda$-module. It follows from results previously obtained by F.M. Bleher and the third author that $V$ has a well-defined versal deformation ring $R(Lambda, V)$, which is a complete local commutative Noetherian $mathbf{k}$-algebra with residue field $mathbf{k}$. The third author also proved that if $Lambda$ is a Gorenstein $mathbf{k}$-algebra and $V$ is a Cohen-Macaulay $Lambda$-module whose stable endomorphism ring is isomorphic to $mathbf{k}$, then $R(Lambda, V)$ is universal. In this article we prove that the isomorphism class of a versal deformation ring is preserved under singular equivalence of Morita type between Gorenstein $mathbf{k}$-algebras.
