🔒 🧠 Earlier this week, our CEO, Markku Räsänen, took the stage at the Infosys InspireNext customer event in Helsinki. This is the first time that this exclusive customer engagement event is organized in Finland by Infosys. It brought together innovators from diverse sectors such as enterprises, governments, academia, and startups to discuss artificial intelligence. ConfidentialMind was excited to present its work to this amazing audience. Markku’s speech was about deployment of AI systems on top of enterprise data The speech focused on three crucial aspects:  1. The coming AI inference wave 2. Arrival of compound AI systems in enterprise computing environments 3. Getting data ready for LLMs and the coming inference wave    We want to thank Infosys for hosting such an impactful event and everyone who listened and participated in these meaningful discussions. At ConfidentialMind we are proud to collaborate with partners such as Infosys - an expert in all things AI who not only ask 'what next', but help you to build it. Let’s continue driving innovation together!

🔒 🧠 ConfidentialMind is excited to partner with OrionVM | Next-Gen Cloud & GPU Platform. We are joining forces to launch a private generative AI cloud platform for enterprises and nation states worldwide.   This collaboration combines OrionVM’s cutting-edge cloud and AI infrastructure with ConfidentialMind’s generative AI software infrastructure platform, enabling organizations to develop and deploy generative AI applications with ease, cost efficiency, and security.

🔒 🧠ConfidentialMind will be at SuperCompute 2024! Our cofounder, Severi Tikkala will be giving a talk at SuperCompute 2024! If you are attending the event, catch him live as he will discuss: 🎤 ConfidentialMind and Vultr turn-key solution 📅 Date: Tuesday, Nov. 19th 🕒 Time:  11:30am ET 🗂 Stand No: Vultr booth, 949   This is a fantastic opportunity to explore the partnership between the two companies: how ConfidentialMind’s generative AI platform will run on Vultr’s GPU-powered Kubernetes infrastructure, offering cost-efficient, low-latency, and high-throughput inferencing. "The LLM market is shifting from training to inference. But simple model inference alone is not enough! You need an AI system that simplifies Kubernetes and complex model deployments for enterprise software developers, enabling them to develop and deploy AI applications with ease" says Severi Tikkala. "This is exactly what our partnership offers – a unified AI system that works out of the box, and is secure, scalable, and cost-efficient, designed for enterprises seeking a robust AI infrastructure." If you’re attending the event, we invite you to listen to the talk.

🔒 🧠 ConfidentialMind's first KubeCon North America was a great success. Many discussions around LLM deployment and security. Some recurring themes: 1. Big enterprises doing partial public cloud exits especially in AI inference for data governance and cost reasons 2. Universities investing heavily into on-prem LLM inference 3. Companies looking to license their scalable LLM backend versus doing it themselves Gladly, we hit all these themes with our platform that allows your to deploy, connect, and secure LLMs in enterprise environments. It was a privilege to learn about the businesses and projects of so many organizations that came to chat with us during the convention.
