Blaize Partners With KAIST to Create the Next Generation of Edge AI Technology – hydrogen included

The university and business research and development collaboration is expected to produce new edge AI computing applications across biomedical, neuromorphic, photovoltaics, thermoelectrics and green hydrogen

EL DORADO HILLS, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Blaize Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: BZAI) (“Blaize”), a provider of purpose-built, artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled edge-optimized solutions, and South Korea-based KAIST Institute for NanoCentury (“KINC”) of the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (“KAIST”) have entered into a joint technology agreement for research and development projects, as well as the co-development of prototypes and technology solutions.

Through the partnership, Blaize and KAIST will bring the best of collaboration between the most advanced scientific university research and the most promising applications of edge AI computing in industry and the business world.

The areas of research and development focus include:

• AI-based analysis and chips for biomedical diagnoses;
• Energy-efficient neuromorphic devices such as memristive devices for synaptic storage, spintronic devices, and 2D material-based neuromorphic components; and
• High-efficiency energy conversion materials and devices, such as perovskite photovoltaics, thermoelectrics, and green hydrogen production

As part of the agreement, Blaize and KAIST plan to exchange personnel with each other to exchange information, provide education, and engage in joint research. KAIST and Blaize also intend to hold joint workshops and conferences to broaden understanding of the applications of AI-based chips and edge computing.

Dinakar Munagala, chief executive officer of Blaize, said:

KAIST is at the cutting edge in scientific and engineering discovery, producing groundbreaking research in fields such as robotics, artificial intelligence and nanotechnology,

“Blaize is excited to partner with KAIST to develop the next generation of edge AI computing technologies.”

Prof. Sang-Ouk Kim, director of KINC, said:

At KINC, we are excited to collaborate with Blaize to advance edge AI technologies in biomedical diagnostics, neuromorphic computing, and sustainable energy.

“We believe this partnership will drive meaningful innovation and real-world impact,”

The agreement with KAIST is part of Blaize’s continuing success in developing edge AI computing applications across several verticals, such as security and monitoring, enterprise edge AI and autonomous systems, and demonstrates Blaize’s growing customer pipeline.
