Upstage, South Korea’s artificial intelligence startup, announced on Thursday that it signed a multi-year strategic collaboration agreement (SCA) with Amazon Web Services (AWS).


Under the agreement, Upstage plans to strengthen its collaboration with AWS and leverage the AWS ISV Accelerate Program to discover global sales opportunities for its self-developed large language model (LLM) Solar.

Upstage also aims to identify demand for customized LLM adoption among global enterprises and public sectors using the AWS Cloud.

"Through strategic cooperation with AWS, companies worldwide will be able to adopt the latest generative AI solutions more easily and quickly," CEO of Upstage Kim Seong-hoon said.

"We will support more businesses in enjoying the benefits of AI based on AWS Cloud."
