This information is crucial for developing strategies, goals and services for the future National competence centre activities. According to the OECD publication<em>\u00a0SME Entrepreneurship Policy in Slovak Republic\u201c*<\/em> \u00a0 the SMEs are facing several barriers in their digital transformation, such as lack of knowledge and experience. The National competence centre enables the knowledge transfer and adoption of HPC, HPDA, AI and ML technologies, where the benefits for private companies include competitive advantage on the market, effective processes, ROI and cost savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201e<em>\u201cApart from these activities the National competence centre has an ambition to facilitate the collaboration between experts and end-users coming from various areas and sectors. This survey will help us to identify experts in specific application fields, such as processing big data, advanced simulations and machine learning\/artificial intelligence technologies.\u201d <\/em>\u00a0the coordinator of the project, Lucia Demovi\u010dov\u00e1, stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The survey will also provide information about the computational capacities and resources required at the moment and into the future in Slovakia. Actual local data from Slovak HPC users, including the potential future ones, will be valuable in planning the new high-performance systems and developing the national HPC infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The NCC was established within the EuroCC project implemented by the Centre of Operations of the Slovak Academy of Sciences. As a primary contact point for users and all parties interested in HPC in Slovakia the NCC provides several services free of charge that might be interesting for scientific teams, but also the private sector and public administration. Education activities, consultancy and access to computational resources are among the portfolio of NCC services that are meant to support the innovation potential and competitiveness in Slovakia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/eurocc.nscc.sk\/en\/mapping-survey\/\">Mapping of the HPC environment<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>* OECD (2021), <em>SME Entrepreneurship Policy in Slovak
