Over 300 applicants sent in their proposals, of which 100 were selected to move on to the Challenger Showcase. OmniSci’s proposal “Harnessing GPUs for Next Generation Analytics and Visualization,” which highlighted how the OmniSci GPU-accelerated analytics platform can improve the effectiveness of the US Airforce and other agencies, was selected to move forward.
