HANAMI participated in Supercomputing Asia / HPCAsia 2026, held in Osaka on 26-29 January 2026, strengthening its role in promoting long-term collaboration between Europe and Japan in high-performance computing (HPC).
During the conference, HANAMI hosted the session “HANAMI – Bridging Europe & Japan through High-Performance Computing”, which showcased joint scientific projects led by European and Japanese teams. The session provided insights into the current and future directions of EU–Japan cooperation across HPC, artificial intelligence (AI), quantum computing, climate and weather modelling, materials sciences, and biomedical science, supported by contributions from the European Commission, MEXT, and EuroHPC.

With insights from the EC, MEXT, and EuroHPC, we now move forward with renewed perspectives to shape the future roadmap. HANAMI is a team effort, and collaboration is our fuel,” said France Boillod Cerneux, HANAMI coordinator.
Daniele Varsano (CNR-NANO) contributed to the invited session “HPC Alliance for Applications and Supercomputing Innovation”, presenting the perspective of European research and collaboration in advanced computational science.
