vLLM x Crusoe Meetup: Production Open Source Inference
July 21, 2026 at San Francisco in San Francisco, CA
Calling all AI engineers, researchers, and infrastructure builders: Join us for the vLLM x Crusoe meetup in San Francisco!
This is a unique opportunity to connect with vLLM maintainers and the Crusoe engineers architecting high-performance GPU clusters for production-scale open-weights workloads. See the powerful synergy between the vLLM ecosystem with Crusoe’s upstream contribution and application throughout its cloud Infrastructure.
The session will dive deep into the frontier of inference. The vLLM team will share technical updates on the vLLM roadmap, serving for agentic workloads, and advanced KV cache offloading techniques. Crusoe will detail the infrastructure powering these workloads, from NVIDIA and AMD GPU orchestration to MemoryAlloy cluster-wide KV caching technology and high-performance Rust BPE tokenizer on vLLM.
We'll end the evening with networking, drinks, and bites with the builders scaling the future of AI.

San Francisco as a “venue” usually means the event could be in a private dining room, a historic building, or a coworking or gallery-style space somewhere in the city. Tech and founder dinners like the Junto series often use private clubs or reservation-only restaurants, with multi-course meals at shared tables and a set program. Larger mixers such as SF Climate Week happy hours tend to be in central locations with structured check-in, name badges, sponsor signage, and access to nearby paid parking garages, especially around corridors like Van Ness and downtown. more...
