About the summit \
What is it about?
The event focuses on high-performance computing and the world-class growth opportunities it offers for companies. Nordic companies have access to unique tools to accelerate growth – the EuroHPC LUMI supercomputer, its successor LUMI-AI and the quantum computer LUMI-IQ, which will be launched in autumn 2027. In addition, companies will receive expert support from the National HPC Competence Centers (NCC) and the LUMI AI Factory.
Who should be here?
This event is designed for curious minds – R&D-driven innovators, technology leaders and business decision-makers who want to stay ahead of industry trends, expand their networks and explore new growth and innovation opportunities. This event is for you if you work in demanding simulations, AI development, digital twins or quantum computing – or are interested in their benefits for your company.
What do you get?
You will be among the first to hear about the latest cutting-edge technology opportunities for companies. You will meet Nordic experts in high-performance computing, quantum computing and artificial intelligence, be inspired by real-life use cases and gain new tools and insights that will help you scale your own innovations.
