Key Note Speaker
Abstract: In my presentation I will present the idea behind the activity of building National Centres of Excellence in Europe and how it is being implemented. First successes will be presented and the embedding of the network of competence centres in the European HPC ecosystem will be shown. It will also become clear how important competences are in the European HPC strategy and how to interact with the (constantly growing) network at national and European level.
