CyberLucent has created a software platform that adds a layer of intelligence to network edge devices (routers, gateways, servers). The software is extremely lightweight, operating at line speed such that partners can add it to their devices without sacrificing performance. The technology is compatible with both new devices as well as most legacy edge devices already deployed. Our solutions provide advanced security, better performance, and detailed insights/analytics for not just the edge device, but also for connected endpoint devices as well as the traffic flowing through the entire network. We can also identify the devices and applications that are flowing through an edge device, enabling partners to enforce more robust networking and security policy controls from the cloud and the edge. We believe that edge devices / routers are an ideal place to process the information that is critical to advanced AI capabilities – CyberLucent lives on these edge devices and processes all information flowing through the network. This positions us well to support the migration from processing data relevant to AI in the cloud to processing it locally on edge devices. Local data processing (and preprocessing) dramatically reduces costs, improves privacy, and provides critical performance improvements that will be required for a variety of use cases (such as lower latency for IoT devices and robotics).

Polymorph is a white label monetization platform for publishers to maximize revenue, reduce costs and deliver better ad experiences. Polymorph allows publishers to define their own branded ad experiences, leverage their data to target users across devices and manage and deliver campaigns from direct and indirect demand sources. We are real-time company giving ML driven revenue decisions (ads and messages) more than 500 million times a day. In a month - we reach roughly 2B unique users over 25K domains in 150+ countries and process over 125TB data. The team is 15 full-time based out of SF and Bangalore. Sample customers - Viber, Mozilla/Pocket, Disqus, Gfycat and the likes. Learn more at ​www.getpolymorph.com

AirHop Communications is a leading provider of cloud-native Open RAN automation and real-time optimization software solutions that deliver significant gains in spectral efficiency, lower operating costs and improved end-user quality of experience for 4G and 5G mobile networks. AirHop’s Auptim family of O-RAN compliant near-RT xApps and AI/ML-based rApps provide O-RAN compliant intelligent RAN automation and optimization solutions. AirHop’s eSON and eSON360 solutions provide commercially hardened and massively scalable near RT and AI/ML based RAN automation and optimization for pre-O-RAN architecture deployments. AirHop’s solutions are backed by a comprehensive portfolio of patents and are deployed by some of the most innovative mobile network operators across millions of macro and small cells. Starting with 4G mobile networks and extending even greater with 5G networks, real-time RAN intelligence becomes essential to dynamically characterize the RAN environment and make autonomous optimization decisions. AirHop’s scalable and cloud-native closed-loop optimization software dynamically coordinates distributed network information in near-real time and make decisions from the broader network perspective to optimize the performance of the overall network. AirHop works with a broad base of ecosystem of partners and is an active participant in the O-RAN Alliance, the Telecom Infra Project and Open Networking Foundation. AirHop is headquartered in San Diego, California.

WiChorus is an industry leader in smart 4G core infrastructure products. Its SmartCore platform’s unmatched performance with network intelligence enables operators to deploy smart 4G networks that optimize network resources, deliver new revenue generating services and monetize the Internet. WiChrous is now part of Tellabs.

FusionOne is the established leader in mobile content portability, helping mobile subscribers transfer their content between mobile devices and sharing their content with popular internet applications—anytime, anywhere. FusionOne pioneered mobile phone content transfer and its products, including Handset Transfer Solution and Network Address Book, currently support millions of subscribers on many major carriers worldwide. Founded in 1998, FusionOne is headquartered in San Jose, California with additional offices in Tallinn, Estonia. For more information, visit www.fusionone.com.
