During the intensive discussions, the partners focused primarily on current challenges and opportunities in the field of international cooperation, with particular attention given to:

  • the exchange of best practices in reaching target audiences,
  • the organization of joint training sessions and activities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs),
  • the sharing of successful case studies (“success stories”) and the preparation of their coordinated presentation,
  • the planning of joint cross-border events.

The meeting also contributed to the alignment of communication and dissemination strategies of both centres, with the aim of enhancing the effectiveness of outreach regarding the benefits of high-performance computing among both expert and general audiences. The participants appreciated the opportunity for an in-person meeting, which helped strengthen inter-institutional ties and opened up new areas of potential collaboration.

EuroCC Slovakia a EuroCC Czech Republic deklarovali záujem o pokračovanie spoločných iniciatív, ktorých cieľom je systematicky rozvíjať kompetencie v oblasti HPC a posilňovať regionálnu synergiu medzi národnými centrami v rámci európskeho HPC ekosystému.
