About Pratul Agarwal

My mission is to help businesses and non-profit institutions navigate the complex and evolving landscape, currently driven by AI. I am a technology leader with deep expertise in GPU‑accelerated computing, heterogeneous architectures, and large‑scale AI/HPC systems. My company Arium AI provides consulting to small and mid-size companies and businesses to right-size and leverage AI for *their* needs. In past roles, I have developed GPU-driven solutions for AI workloads and simulations (from drawing board, cooling/power design, rack/stack, operations and software stack). I also founded the company Arium Biolabs to leverage power of AI/ML to develop engineering solutions for health-care and industrial enzyme applications. I have been living and breathing Linux (and everything associated with it) since In 2005, I developed a customized Linux distro (Vigyaan), for bioinformatics, computational biology and computational chemistry. Fun fact: Started programming and using GPUs in 2009. Been obsessed with GPU driven compute for last 16 years (personally own 9 generation of GPU cards).Background Summary:* 20 years of experience in applied research and engineering* All things GPU: Hardware, OEM packing design, compute density, drivers, virtualization, software stack* Founder of two startup companies* 7 patents and >90 publicationsSpecialties: Research and Development* Computing architectures (GPU-driven) for large scale data analysis and machine learning* High performance scientific computing* Biotechnology Applications: Drug discovery and Allosteric modulators* Biotechnology Applications: Enzyme engineering
