Off the Wire Press Releases
July 10, 2026 — High-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) have the potential to accelerate innovation and strengthen the competitiveness of businesses. While some companies have been leveraging these technologies for several years, for many others they remain largely unexplored.
Bringing these transformative digital technologies closer to industry was the main objective of the GCS Industry Day, held on June 17, 2026 at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC). Participants learned how they can benefit from JSC’s world-class computing infrastructure, extensive expertise, and the latest funded projects in HPC and AI.
The event was organized by JSC in cooperation with the Gauss Centre for Supercomputing (GCS) and the Chambers of Industry and Commerce (IHK) of the Rhenish mining region: Aachen, Cologne, and Middle Lower Rhine.
Real-World Use Cases and Lively Discussions
The program focused on practical industrial applications, with representatives from Aumovio SE, Proxima Fusion GmbH, and Metso sharing first-hand experiences of using supercomputing and AI in their businesses. Presentations highlighted AI for autonomous driving, HPC for fusion power plant development, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations to optimize large-scale industrial facilities.
A particular highlight of the event was the vibrant exchange between researchers and industry representatives. Whether during the moderated panel discussion, the Q&A sessions following the presentations, or informal networking breaks, participants engaged in meaningful conversations that deepened mutual understanding and laid the foundation for future collaborations.
The event concluded with guided tours of JUPITER, Europe’s first Exascale supercomputer. Participants had the opportunity to experience the infrastructure first-hand and engage directly with JSC experts.
Lowering the Barrier to HPC Adoption
JSC’s state-of-the-art infrastructure and comprehensive expertise provide companies with ideal conditions for taking their first steps into high-performance computing. For more than a decade, the JSC Industry Relations Team has been helping businesses adopt supercomputing technologies.
Since 2022, the AI Service Center WestAI, in which JSC is a partner, has offered comprehensive publicly funded AI services, including access to computing resources and expert consulting.
In addition, the JUPITER AI Factory is becoming a key pillar of Europe’s AI infrastructure. It provides startups, small and medium-sized enterprises, and large companies with access to Europe’s first Exascale supercomputer, JUPITER, for AI training and development.
Strong Potential for Industry – Research Collaboration
The GCS Industry Day 2026 clearly demonstrated the growing importance of supercomputing and AI for businesses and highlighted the tremendous potential of closer collaboration between industry and research.
Past collaborations between JSC and industry have primarily focused on practical HPC and AI applications, and the number of such partnerships has increased significantly in recent years.
JSC is committed to helping companies harness the potential of these advanced technologies. If you are interested in exploring how HPC and AI can support your business, we encourage you to get in touch. Our experts are ready to help you take the first step.
