Furiosa aims to contribute to building a competitive inference infrastructure by proving the performance, efficiency, and versatility of Renegade in Ruiten's actual service environment. The two companies have decided to establish a strategic cooperative relationship and continuously explore and cooperate on business opportunities to achieve these goals.
Furiosa CEO Baek Jun-ho said, “Through this collaboration, we expect to further accelerate the acquisition of national-level AI full-stack competitiveness that can efficiently service large-scale AI services.” Ruiten CEO Lee Se-young said, “Helping all citizens use AI more easily and conveniently has been Ruiten's long-standing goal since its founding,” and added, “To this end, we will continue to collaborate with AI companies in various fields to expand the ecosystem and contribute to strengthening national AI competitiveness.”
