As part of the program, Sopra Steria experts Marten Koopmans and Paul Verhaar will dive into one of today’s most pressing challenges: how to balance performance and cost in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines. Drawing from their experience building a scalable, platform-agnostic retrieval system, they’ll highlight the trade-offs and strategies that make RAG solutions both efficient and impactful.
