The summit offered sessions about AI Factories, EuroHPC quantum computing challenges or showcasing scientific and societal breakthroughs on EuroHPC supercomputers. The event introduced plenty of parallel sessions and a EuroHPC Demo Lab, a space dedicated to the European supercomputers, which received co-funding from the EuroHPC JU. IT4Innovations National Supercomputing Center took this opportunity to introduce the Karolina supercomputer and inform about its capabilities. Václav Svatoň and Jakub Konvička presented to the students engaged in EUMaster4HPC project and attendees of the summit the LEXIS Platform 2 on the specific use cases of the Karolina supercomputer. They also introduced the system Floreon+ for monitoring, modelling, prediction, and support in disaster management which uses the LEXIS as a backend for handling complex computing workflows. The LEXIS Platform 2 was also mentioned during the session The Concept of Federation in its Various Aspects by Pekka Lehtovuori from CSC as a part of the European Federation Platform. Its role here is to provide easy access to visually managed workflows, distributed data management, and smart scheduling policies across federated supercomputers, cloud and data management resources.

The summit attracted 1000 registered attendees this year. The event focused on the latest achievements, helped to explore cutting-edge developments and future challenges in the European supercomputing ecosystem and offered plenty of networking opportunities.
