Strongbytes

On March 26, Strongbytes was proud to be part of the 4th edition of the Digital Innovation Zone Conference - DIZ 4.0: Artificial Intelligence. Human Perspective.

The conference brought together insightful voices on some of the most pressing questions in AI today: how to harness AI to our advantage, how innovation is reshaping our businesses and lives, and how to build AI as a trustworthy tool for companies and public institutions.

Our colleagues Florin Cardasim and Constanța Ghițu took the stage to present the AI services available through the Digital Innovation Zone Hub and to introduce Aegis - AI Evaluation Platform — our product focused on evaluating LLM-based solutions and why that evaluation matters.

We're glad to be part of a community that takes both innovation and its human impact seriously.

On March 26, Iași becomes a hub for conversations about the future of AI.

Join us at the 4th edition of the Digital Innovation Zone Conference – DIZ 4.0: Artificial Intelligence. Human Perspective.

The event will bring together entrepreneurs, tech leaders, and public decision-makers to explore how artificial intelligence can be applied responsibly, with a strong focus on the human perspective behind technology.

Organized by Digital Innovation Zone, the first European Digital Innovation Hub (eDIH) in Romania’s North-East region, the conference creates a space for collaboration, practical insights, and real business connections.

• AI in Action sessions and B2B matchmaking opportunities

• networking with an ecosystem that has already supported 94 SMEs and 22 public institutions, facilitating funding of over €21.5M.

We’re also proud that two of our colleagues will take the stage:
Constanta Ghitu, Data Scientist at Strongbytes, and Florin Cardasim, Managing Partner at Strongbytes.
They will join the panel “Private Sector Track: Technology for Business Growth”, sharing perspectives on how companies can leverage AI and data to build stronger products and drive sustainable business growth.

[EN] After almost a decade of building digital platforms for our clients, we’re thrilled to be launching our own. 🥳

Meet Aegis – an evaluation platform designed to provide insights into the performance, security, and alignment of AI systems, with a particular focus on large language models (LLMs).

We started working on Aegis in 2024, and it’s already taking shape. Even more, it has been selected for funding through the North-East Regional Programme 2021–2027, with a total project value of ~€3M. We’re pleased to be conducting part of the R&D efforts in cooperation with the Gheorghe Asachi Technical University of Iasi.

This marks a big milestone for Strongbytes — and an exciting step toward shaping how AI is evaluated and adopted.

📌 “AI Agent and Model Evaluation Platform”, SMIS code 338552 – project funded through the North-East Regional Programme 2021–2027, under the call PR/NE/2024/P1/RSO1.1_RSO1.3/1 – R&D and Investment Projects in SMEs.

[RO] După aproape un deceniu în care am dezvoltat platforme digitale pentru clienții noștri, suntem încântați să lansăm propriul nostru produs. 🥳

Vă prezentăm Aegis – o platformă de evaluare concepută pentru a oferi perspective asupra performanței, securității și alinierii sistemelor de inteligență artificială, cu un accent deosebit pe modelele lingvistice de mari dimensiuni (LLMs).

Aegis a luat naștere în 2024, iar platforma prinde deja contur. Mai mult, a fost selectată pentru finanțare prin Programul Regional Nord-Est 2021–2027, cu o valoare totală a proiectului de aproximativ 3 milioane de euro. Ne bucurăm să desfășurăm o parte din activitățile de cercetare și dezvoltare în colaborare cu Universitatea Tehnică „Gheorghe Asachi” din Iași.

Este un moment important pentru noi și un pas promițător spre definirea modului în care sistemele AI sunt evaluate și adoptate.
