Join SGLang, HOF Capital, Crusoe, Cloudflare, and Arklex AI for an evening of lightning talks and conversation with the people building inference systems for finance. ​Inference is the next frontier in finance. LLMs are moving beyond experimental tooling into latency-sensitive production workflows across trading, research, compliance, and risk. The constraints that come with that — throughput, structured outputs, on-prem deployment, cost per token — are now first-class strategic concerns. ​What to expect ​5 lightning talks from inference engineers, infrastructure providers, founders, and researchers, followed by an open happy hour with drinks and food. ​6:00–6:30 — arrival, drinks, mingling ​6:30–7:30 — lightning talks + light Q&A ​7:30–9:00 — open happy hour ​Speakers include ​- Liangsheng Yin, core developer of SGLang, MTS at RadixArk ​- Mao Cheng, core developer of Miles, MTS at RadixArk ​- Omri Berkovitch, Staff Researcher at Crusoe ​- Michelle Chen, Principal Product Manager at Cloudflare ​- Zhou Yu, Associate Professor at Columbia, Co-founder & CEO of Arklex AI ​(Full lineup announced soon.)
