European cloud company Nevios has announced the acquisition of the Israeli startup Inferize. While the exact purchase price was not disclosed, sources familiar with the matter estimate the total deal value at approximately $150 million. This includes $120 million, paid half in cash and half in stock, plus an additional $30 million allocated for employee retention payments. The acquisition marks an exceptionally rapid exit for Inferize, which was founded just 10 months ago. The company developed technology to shorten AI model activation times and adjust computing capacity to demand, aiming to reduce idle time for expensive GPU processors. Inferize presented a prototype within three months of its founding and had not yet been publicly revealed. The company employs 17 people at its offices in Tel Aviv.
