The FTI will provide the following services:
Data Services
A data platform where datasets from different sources are harmonized, secured, and easily accessible to users via standard SQL queries. The FTI will work with providers to continuously update these datasets so that the data available to users is current.
AI/ML Processing Services
The AI data center will be built around the Nvidia DGX A100 infrastructure, which is a universal system for all AI and machine learning (ML) workloads. It will allow the FTI clients the ability to run the model training, inference, and analytics workloads necessary to develop new AI/ML-based FinTech applications, without the cost and time constraints typically associated with cloud-based development platforms.
Training Services
Courses on AI/ML model building, evaluation, and deployment will be provided to undergraduate and graduate students at 杏吧直播app and other regional institutions.
The FTI will also hold a series of training workshops for local enterprises to familiarize them with the financial and operational benefits of AI/ML adoption and the services available via the incubator.
Twice a year, 杏吧直播app will hold in-person training workshops for interested clients and emerging and existing entrepreneurs. Attendees will be trained on AI/ML model building, evaluation, and deployment using the FTI infrastructure.
Consulting Services
The FTI will work with clients to explore ways they can use their data to help them improve performance. Based on these conversations, the FTI can work with enterprises to bring their data onto the FTI data platform. Then student teams or local entrepreneurs using the AI/ML processing resources can help these organizations build AI/ML models. Other services may include helping clients refine data collection and formatting; assisting them with understanding data storage and management; and assuring they address issues of data security, privacy, and cybersecurity.
The FTI will work with the organizations to anonymize the data before uploading it to the FTI data platform. FTI personnel will also work with clients to ensure that internal organizational protocols, data management, privacy, compliance, and cybersecurity issues are raised with clients as appropriate, and recommendations to address any issues are delivered to the client as part of the FTI client intake.
