Taking place close to the oldest European university, University of Bologna (founded in 1088), the "4th PRACE Industrial Seminar" will take place on 16-17 April, and will demonstrate how High-Performance Computing (HPC) can enhance European industrial competitiveness by enhancing its innovation capabilities.
During two half-days in the heart of the medieval city of Bologna, the event will provide answers to two questions:
- How successful applications of HPC technologies in various industries can help achieve industrial leadership in either innovation or large-scale data modeling
- How PRACE, as the pan-European HPC research infrastructure, can help European industry apply novel HPC-based solutions by providing access to PRACE resources and knowledge
Speakers will include specialists from leading innovative European companies, HPC experts from academia, as well as representatives of PRACE and the European Commission.
Among the company partecipating, some of the most important industries in Europe will present their "success stories": ENI, Dompè, Scania, Tetrapak.

For the first time ever, during this seminar, PRACE will award Europe’s most innovative HPC application. This competition is open to all organisations (not only seminar participants). Click here for more details.
