Tech Talk: Operationalizing Federated Learning: Deploying, Scaling, and Integrating Models, Agents, and Apps.
Speaker: Adrish Sannyasi, Vice President, Customer Solutions and Delivery, Rhino Federated Computing Platform
Abstract: Federated learning enables collaborative model training across distributed data sources without centralizing sensitive data, making it an attractive approach for regulated and data-intensive industries. This session focuses on federated learning as deployed in production systems, emphasizing industry-driven use cases such as drug discovery, federated clinical data networks, financial fraud detection, cybersecurity, and automotive systems, among others.
Additionally, we will examine the transition from collaborative training to decentralized inference and decentralized agents, illustrating how a global model—such as a fraud detection system or a molecular property prediction model trained across multiple banks/pharma companies.

Tech Talk: Building Production Federated AI with NVIDIA FLARE: APIs, Operations, Agents, and Enterprise Scale
Speaker: Chester Chen, Senior Product & Engineering Manager, NVIDIA Federated learning, FLARE | Peter Cnudde, Director of Engineering, NVIDIA Federated learning, FLARE
Abstract: This session explores how NVIDIA FLARE supports the full lifecycle of production federated AI, from application development to deployment, operations, automation, and future agent-assisted workflows.
