Acryl and FuriosaAI to collaborate on targeting the sovereign AI market

Acrylic and FuriosaAI signed an MOU to cooperate on AI infrastructure technology and joint business development.

They will optimize the medical LLM 'Areum.H' for FuriosaAI's second-generation inference NPU 'Renegade' and verify performance and power efficiency.

The companies plan to jointly build a commercial AI inference platform, starting with bundled solutions for hospitals and public institutions with closed, on-premise networks.

The partnership highlights a domestic, full-stack sovereign AI alternative that reduces GPU dependence for regulated Korean markets.
