GFT Partners with NVIDIA to Drive AI Innovation in Financial Services and Manufacturing 

NEW YORK and MONTREAL, Nov. 12, 2024 -- GFT Technologies is collaborating with NVIDIA to bring advanced AI solutions to the financial services and manufacturing sectors. The collaboration will combine GFT’s deep expertise in digitalizing global banks, financial institutions and manufacturers with NVIDIA’s AI software tools and accelerated computing platform for generative AI to drive a new level of innovation and efficiency in both industries.

GFT will use the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software platform – which includes NVIDIA NIM microservices, NVIDIA Triton Inference Server, NVIDIA NeMo, and NIM Agent Blueprints – and the NVIDIA Omniverse platform to develop tailor-made AI applications, focusing on the manufacturing and financial services sectors.

For manufacturers, applications include digital twin technology and visual inspection tools to enhance quality control and operational efficiency. GFT will also collaborate with NVIDIA on fine-tuning open-source large language models (LLMs) for banks and insurance companies. Financial services institutions will be able to leverage these custom LLMs to enhance AI agents, as well as improve operations including fraud detection, customer service and risk reduction.

“We are collaborating with NVIDIA to help unlock the next level of AI-driven solutions for our clients,” said Marco Santos, Co-CEO of GFT. “These tools will drive efficiency and, beyond that, create fresh growth opportunities for our clients. Through this collaboration, we aim to set new standards in digital innovation.”

GFT’s collaboration with NVIDIA will tap into the latest advances in generative AI, using open-source models including Google Gemma, Llama 3.1 405B, and Microsoft Phi. By leveraging these models, GFT will support enterprises in building new AI applications such as digital customer service chatbots and retrieval-augmented generation workflows. By definition, these open-source models give companies the flexibility to quickly launch new capabilities in any environment they choose – in the cloud or on-premises.

Ignasi Barri, Global Head for Data and AI at GFT, said, “Through this collaboration with NVIDIA, we’re providing our clients with advanced AI capabilities. By combining their advanced technology in hardware and software with our data and AI expertise, we're delivering solutions that can drive real business value.”

GFT has seen increasing demand for its AI and data analytics solutions quarter after quarter, due in large part to the continued development of the GFT AI.DA Marketplace. This has led to GFT’s recognition as a global leader in AI and machine learning. For three consecutive years, ISG has named GFT a leader on AI and data analytics in Google Cloud. Each year, GFT has improved its position in the analyst house’s report and clearly outpaced larger providers. This latest work underscores GFT's commitment to pushing the boundaries of AI for real-world business solutions.
