BUILDING DATA PLATFORMS

Stockholm, Sweden, Stockholm, Sweden
In person

Every data platform conversation splits down the middle. One side argues about the stack: which engine, which table format, how to handle state and replay. The other side argues about the operating model: ownership, contracts, treating data as a product. The data platforms that actually hold up get both right. Two talks this evening. One takes you into the engine room, the other zooms out to where the field is heading and what it means for Swedish enterprises. Robert Sahlin (Supercargo) on where data platforms are heading and how the strongest ones get built. Data contracts, ownership, data products, the data flywheel, and what it all means for Swedish enterprises. Joel Falk (Irori) on building a working data platform for event-driven architecture with Kafka, Flink, and Iceberg. He takes the architecture end to end: where each layer fits, the trade-offs, best practices, and the pitfalls worth avoiding. 📅 17 September | 📍 Stockholm | 🍕 Food and drinks on us

Från idé till patent – hur ingenjörer skapar och skyddar innovation

West Forest Technologies, Stockholm, Sweden · West Forest Tech meetup
In person

Vill du förstå hur tekniska idéer kan omvandlas till patent – och varför det faktiskt spelar roll i praktiken? Välkommen till vårt nästa meet där vi går igenom hur ingenjörer arbetar med innovation, patent och immateriella rättigheter i verkliga projekt. Vi tittar på hur du identifierar vad som är patenterbart, hur processen ser ut – och hur patent används som ett verktyg i produktutveckling och affär. Vad är ett patent – ur ett ingenjörsperspektiv? Hur identifierar man idéer som är värda att skydda? Hur ser processen ut från idé till ansökan? Varför arbetar företag aktivt med patent – och vad betyder det för dig? Hur kan man använda en claims chart för att analysera patentintrång? Oavsett om du arbetar med mjukvara, hårdvara eller systemutveckling får du en konkret bild av hur patent fungerar i praktiken – och hur du själv kan bidra i innovationsarbetet. Daniel J Tornéus Systemarkitekt med över 20 godkända patent och flera på väg. Daniel har arbetat brett inom produktion, optik, algoritmer, mjukvara och linsgjutning – både inom forskning, nyutveckling och problemlösning i komplexa system. Idag utvecklar han computer vision-system för VR, AR och smart glasses, från prototyper i låg volym till integration i högvolymsprodukter. Agenda 🕠 17:30 – Välkomstmingel med lättare mat och dryck 🕕18:00 – Föreläsning & diskussion (avslut ca 19:30)

Model Optimization & CPU Based Inferencing

AI Sweden, Stockholm, Sweden · Stockholm MLOps Community
In person

\\\Do note that you will have to sign-up at the Luma event page prior to attending. Do so here: https://luma.com/4si349kz\\\ All right!!! Meetup #39 will take place September 24 at AI Sweden and focus on "Model Optimization & CPU Based Inferencing". We're super excited to team up with Spanish Quantum AI wizards Multiverse Computing and tech giants Intel and HPE. The program is currently being worked out, so stay tuned for updates! There is a tremendous amount happening in the area of model optimization and inferencing. Novel approaches to both seem to be announced daily, such as making it possible to run the recently released 2.78 trillion parameter model Kimi K3 on a single CPU with 8GB of memory...!!! or Multiverse Computing's July 23 announcement that all their compressed models now run on Intel Xeon 6 Processors. So buckle up and brace for impact! Event Program \- Doors open at 17:00 CET \- Talks begin at 17:45 CET \- There will be pizzas & drinks \- There may be a moderated Q&A session\.\.\.\. Speaker Line-Up TBD... - Franco Serra, Solutions Architect at Multiverse Computing will give a talk titled "Ultra Efficient Models to Scale your GenAI Datacenter & Fit for purpose on the Edge deployment". Abstract: As organizations race to deploy Generative AI, two challenges dominate: how to scale inference economically in the datacenter, and how to bring intelligence on the edge where connectivity, power and footprint are constrained. Multiverse Computing makes ultra-efficient, compressed AI models, including LLMs, VLMs, speech-to-text, and computer vision models — engineered to deliver the same accuracy with a fraction of the memory requirements. By integrating with Intel® hardware, enterprises can deploy larger AI models on existing infrastructure rather than expanding it. In the datacenter, leaner models translate directly into higher throughput, lower energy consumption, and improved ROI by enabling more users and workloads to run on the same infrastructure.
