In a casino industry filled with consultants, VCAT stands apart. We're not consultants. We're a team of world-renowned experts in our field, ready to work with you to raise your business to new levels in all market conditions.  We started life 20 years ago as Inland Casino Corporation, a casino consulting company, and transitioned to a NASDAQ publicly traded company, known as Venture Catalyst (or ''VCAT'') that provided a diverse range of services and capital to enable start-up and emerging companies to launch their businesses at a faster pace. We used our business expertise to seek out diamonds in the rough - opportunities involving smart people with great ideas who needed money and business sense to get started. We nurtured these ideas, helping them create key partnerships and seeking out the best people as they grew.

India-based LLUMO AI addresses the cost and performance issues of integrating LLMs into enterprise systems.&nbsp;The company has developed two proprietary tiny LLMs trained on millions of data points. The first model compresses prompts to significantly reduce costs while maintaining output quality, while the second model, Eval-LM (Evaluation Language Model), assesses LLM-generated output without requiring ground truth data. LLUMO AI's solutions are particularly beneficial for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, where prompt token sizes can increase by 5x–10x, leading to escalating costs. The company's platform is designed to integrate with existing AI workflows, bridging the gap between proof-of-concept stages and full-scale production deployment of AI solutions across various industries.LLUMO AI generates revenue via monthly subscriptions (Pro Package: USD 99; Business Package: USD 199) and custom pricing for larger enterprises.Key customers and partnershipsAs of September 2024, notable enterprises using its platform included Beam, SpeakTrack AI, and Zeko.

Founded in Israel, NeuReality specializes in providing hardware infrastructure to streamline computation processes to accelerate the development of AI applications. Its technology assists AI inferencing deployment by offering a comprehensive system solution that seamlessly supports a vast array of deep learning models.NeuRealitys’ infrastructure includes an architecture called the Network Addressable Processing Unit (NAPU) to maximize the capabilities of Deep Learning Accelerators (DLAs). This design facilitates inference through purpose-built NAPUs that are specifically crafted for AI inference tasks, enhancing performance and efficiency.The NR1 AI Inference Solution by NeuReality is a comprehensive system comprising architecture, hardware, and software platforms. Launched in November 2023, it intends to simplify the installation, utilization, and management of AI, making it accessible and manageable for users.The hardware offerings of the solution include,1. NR1 Network Addressable Processing Unit : A network addressable inference Server-on-a-Chip with an embedded Neural Network Engine, which is a workflow-optimized hardware device with specialized processing units, native network capabilities, and virtualization capabilities2. NR1-M™ AI Inference Module : A full-height, double-wide PCIe card containing one NR1 Network Addressable Processing Unit (NAPU) system-on-chip and a network addressable Inference Server that can connect to an external Deep Learning Accelerator (DLA)3. NR1-S AI Inference Appliance : An optimized design for an inference server that contains NR1-M modules with the NR1 NAPU, which enables disaggregated AI service in a scalable and efficient architectureThe software component of the solution is designed to be compatible with any trained model from any development environment. It includes tools that handle the entire AI pipeline and enable seamless connection of AI workflows to any environment.NeuReality differs from traditional AI chip connectivity in replacing CPU-centric support with an AI-centric platform. This allows components to communicate directly with AI accelerators, eliminating the need for commands to pass through a central processing unit. Additionally, the technology enables AI accelerators to connect with each other, enhancing efficiency and performance in AI applications. It also claims its AI-centric approach reduces complexity, cost, and power usage. The firm claims it can reduce inference costs by 90%.Key customers and partnershipsIn November 2021, NeuReality teamed up with IBM to develop advanced AI inference technology by enhancing its NR1 chip and system for use in IBM's Hybrid Cloud.In September 2021, the company partnered with Xilinx to develop AI-centric platforms that improve real-world AI applications. This collaboration was intended to focus on NeuReality's AI-centric inference platform NR1-P and address existing issues with AI deployment including cost and complexity.
