Firefly Neuroscience (NASDAQ:AIFF) has announced its acceptance into the NVIDIA Connect program, granting access to advanced software development resources, frameworks, software development kits, and a global ecosystem.
According to Firefly, the company plans to leverage the program’s tools and resources to support a new strategic initiative to build a proprietary foundation model of the human brain using its FDA-cleared Brain Network Analytics (BNA) technology platform, which utilizes Resting EEG and Cognitive EEG (ERP) data.
NVIDIA Connect brings together NIVIDIA’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) advanced software development resources, industry-leading frameworks and software development kits, and global ecosystem to help fuel the growth of member companies and expand the capabilities of their software development teams. Benefits include technical training and engineering guidance to support the development of products, and discounts on NVIDIA software and hardware to accelerate development and increase efficiency.
“We are honored and excited to be among the select few medtech companies – big, medium or small – to be accepted into the prestigious NVIDIA Connect program,” said Greg Lipschitz, executive chairman of Firefly.
“This marks the achievement of an important milestone for Firefly and comes at an extremely opportune time. As our already unparalleled BNA database continues to grow with each new clinical study and/or clinical assessment in which our technology is used, and we have gained vital access to the best hardware and latest resources through the NVIDIA Connect program, we believe that Firefly is now uniquely positioned to build the world’s first foundation model of the human brain,” Mr. Lipschitz added. “We look forward to updating all stakeholders, including researchers, clinicians, patients and investors, as we progress,” he concluded.
