Marqo Selected to Participate in the 2024 AWS Generative AI Accelerator

The support Marqo will receive through the AWS Generative AI Accelerator will enable us to further enhance our platform to make it even more performant and scalable. Over the coming months, we will release new, state-of-the-art embedding models for ecommerce and retail, building on the success of our multimodal models for the fashion domain, Marqo-FashionSigLIP and Marqo-FashionCLIP.

“This new generation of startups is at the forefront of a transformative new wave, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with artificial intelligence while bringing exciting new solutions to market,” said Jon Jones, Vice President of Go-to-Market at AWS and executive sponsor of the program. “Expanding the cohort for our Generative AI Accelerator is a testament to the potential we see for startups to usher in new innovations for customers in an increasingly AI-driven world. AWS is committed to fostering groundbreaking technologies and supporting visionary founders on their journey to solve the world’s biggest challenges.”

In December 2024, along with other global participants, Marqo will be at re:Invent 2024 in Las Vegas to showcase our platform to potential customers, partners and AWS leaders.
