High performance computing (HPC) is the ability to process data and perform complex calculations at high speeds. HPC, or supercomputing, paves the way for new innovations in science, technology, business and manufacturing. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) can hugely benefit from these technologies as HPC systems increase competitiveness while saving time and money. Thus, HPC can be used to generate new business value.
Join the webinar and learn more about:
- What is high performance computing and why is it important
- What benefits does HPC provide to SMEs
- How can SMEs get access to Estonian and Finnish HPC infrastructure
- Use cases from both countries
The webinar will be held in English.
Participation is free of charge.
