Synopsis
CSC Finland, the operator of Europe’s fastest supercomputer – LUMI, and the National Supercomputing Centre (NSCC) Singapore have established a strong collaborative partnership, marked by several Memoranda of Understanding. The most recent agreement, signed at SupercomputingAsia 2025 (SCA2025) in March, deepens joint efforts in key areas such as HPC–quantum integration, artificial intelligence, digital twin technologies, and green data centres. This builds upon the initial MoU signed in March 2021.
As part of this visit, participants will tour the NSCC Singapore Data Centre, view operational high performance computing (HPC) systems, and hear firsthand about Singapore’s national HPC infrastructure and its role in shaping the future of computing.
