About the event
The NordicHPC Summit 2025 is the leading event in the Nordics focused on High Performance Computing and AI, bringing together SMEs, industry decision-makers, technology providers, and HPC experts to explore how advanced computing can accelerate innovation, drive business transformation, and enable cutting-edge research across sectors.
As Europe navigates an evolving technological and geopolitical landscape, the NordicHPC Summit brings together startups, SMEs, technology providers, and public initiatives to strengthen collaboration in high-performance computing, AI, and emerging digital technologies. By fostering innovation and building a resilient Nordic HPC ecosystem, we empower our region to remain at the forefront of technological sovereignty while driving global competitiveness.
The timing has never been more critical. The rapid acceleration of AI, the increasing demand for compute-intensive applications, and growing concerns around data security and digital autonomy have made HPC a strategic priority for both industry and government. As European initiatives like EuroHPC gain momentum, the Nordic region must align its capabilities, bridge gaps between research and business, and ensure that SMEs—often the most agile innovators—are equipped to harness this wave of transformation. Join us to connect, share insights, and shape the future of Nordic HPC.
Why attend?
The NordicHPC Summit offers a unique opportunity to get inspired by real-world success stories from AI and HPC practitioners across a wide range of industrial sectors. You’ll gain firsthand insights into how cutting-edge computing is accelerating innovation – from AI-driven product development to high-fidelity simulations – while connecting with peers facing similar challenges and opportunities.
Stay ahead of the curve with updates on the latest developments in HPC, AI, and emerging technologies like quantum and neuromorphic computing. Engage directly with policy makers and public service providers to learn about ongoing and upcoming initiatives aimed at boosting AI and HPC adoption in the Nordic region. Most importantly, make your voice heard: this is your chance to influence how major European efforts – like the AI Factories – are shaped to better serve the needs of your industry. Whether you’re an SME, researcher, or decision-maker, your perspective matters in shaping the future of high-performance innovation.

About the organisers
The NordicHPC Summit conference is organised by EuroHPC National Competence Centres from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden – in collaboration with Hyperight.
Hyperight’s mission is to accelerate data and AI innovation in the Nordic region by providing a world-class event and media platform. As a global leader in industry-focused events, Hyperight empowers organisations to stay competitive by delivering cutting-edge content, insights, and networking opportunities. Through conferences, interviews, and articles, Hyperight fosters knowledge-sharing, collaboration, and practical learning, helping professionals stay ahead in the fast-evolving fields of data, analytics, and AI.
National Competence Centres (NCCs) under the EuroCC2 project serve as national hubs for HPC, connecting industry, academia, and public sectors with expertise, training, and resources. They map national competences, streamline access to HPC services and projects, and promote industrial adoption to drive innovation and digital growth. EuroCC2 has received funding from the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking (JU). The JU receives support from the Digital Europe Programme and its member countries.
