Beyond the Cloud: Building a Privacy First AI Future
In collaboration with Multiverse Computing, we are bringing together AI innovators to explore how organizations of all sizes, from start-ups to enterprises, can implement AI solutions without sacrificing on efficiency and privacy - moving away from “big-model, cloud-first” toward efficient, on-premises, privacy-first small language models (SLMs).
What to expect
A panel discussion featuring three leading voices in privacy-first AI and small language models:
Zylon
distil labs
Multiverse Computing
A hands-on workshop led by Multiverse Computing where participants will dive into small language model deployment, private inference strategies, and architectures that keep sensitive data on-device or within enterprise-boundaries.
A focus on real-world use-cases: how organizations can adopt privacy-first AI today, what technical and operational trade-offs look like, and how collaboration across domains accelerates progress.
