The LRZ at ISC 2026 – #ConnectingTheDots
In what ways are high-performance computing, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing coming together to generate a new era of research and innovation?
At ISC 2026, the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ) will demonstrate how these key technologies work together and showcase their combined potential.
With the theme of 'connecting the dots', we will bridge the gap between established HPC and data-driven AI, as well as the revolutionary potential of quantum computing. Come and experience how these technologies come together to form a powerful ecosystem that propels science, business and society forward.
Let's meet up at the event and have a chat. One connection at a time?
