Unlock your Potential with High Performance Computing
The Malta Digital Innovation Authority (MDIA) will soon be launching a state-of-the-art High-Performance Computer (HPC), opening up new possibilities for the local tech ecosystem. This infrastructure is designed to serve as a catalyst for startups, SMEs, and researchers, enabling them to test, scale, and accelerate their projects with cutting-edge computing power.
In this session, you will discover how the HPC can be applied across industries—from AI and data analytics to scientific research and product development. Beyond the technology itself, the focus will be on the real-world opportunities it creates: faster time to market, cost-effective experimentation, and the ability to compete globally.
Attendees will walk away with a clear understanding of the types of projects HPC will support, and practical examples of how it will be possible to harness this national resource to unlock new research and economic potential.
