Local Intelligence Kickstarter

Unlock On-Device and Hybrid AI

The Local Intelligence Kickstarter is a structured workshop designed to introduce technical and strategic stakeholders to the fundamentals of on-device inferencing and the advantages of local and hybrid inferencing.

The engagement blends technical exploration with strategic opportunity identification to equip customers with an understanding of how on‑device AI can accelerate productivity, enhance security, and enable new intelligent experiences.
