Confidential Computing Consortium

Website: https://confidentialcomputing.io/

The Confidential Computing Consortium is a community focused on projects securing data in use and accelerating the adoption of Confidential Computing through open collaboration.

The Confidential Computing Consortium (CCC) brings together hardware vendors, cloud providers, and software developers to accelerate the adoption of Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) technologies and standards.

CCC is a project community at the Linux Foundation dedicated to defining and accelerating the adoption of Confidential Computing. It embodies open governance and open collaboration that has aided the success of similarly ambitious efforts. The effort includes commitments from numerous member organizations and contributions from several open source projects.

NeuReality

Website: https://www.neureality.ai/

Founded in 2020, NeuReality is revolutionizing AI with its complete NR1® AI Inference Solutions powered by the NR1® Chip – the world's first true AI-CPU built for inference workloads at scale. This powerful chip redefines AI by combining computing—6x more powerful than traditional CPUs—with advanced networking capabilities in an AI-NIC, all in one cohesive unit. This includes on-chip inference orchestration, video, and audio capabilities, ensuring businesses and governments maximize their AI hardware investments.

Our innovative technology solves critical compute and networking bottlenecks where expensive GPUs often sit idle. The NR1 pairs with any AI accelerators (GPUs, FPGAs, ASICs), super boosting their utilization to nearly 100% from <50% today with traditional CPUs. This unlocks wasted capacity, delivering superior price/performance, unparalleled energy efficiency, and higher AI token output within the same cost and power.

The NR1 Chip is the heart of our ready-to-go NR1® Inference Appliance which can be built with any GPU. This compact server comes preloaded with our comprehensive NR Software suite, including all necessary SDKs and Inference APIs. Furthermore, it's equipped with optimized AI models for computer vision, generative AI, and agentic AI, featuring popular choices such as Llama 3, DeepSeek, Qwen, and Mixtral. Our mission is to make the AI revolution accessible and affordable, dismantling the barriers of excessive cost, energy consumption, and complexity for all organizations.
