HPC-AI Advisory Council 7th Annual UK Conference
Join Us for the Seventh Annual UK HPC & AI Conference
The esteemed STFC DiRAC Facility and HPC-AI Advisory Council invite you to the seventh annual UK Conference, taking place in person on 14 & 15 October 2025, at the Mattioli Woods Welford Road Stadium, Leicester, the home of the Leicester Tigers rugby team. This two-day gathering offers a unique opportunity to connect with fellow experts and practitioners across High Performance Computing (HPC) and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
This year’s conference theme, “Trustworthy Compute,” focuses on building a computing ecosystem that the community, and society at large, can depend on. From the reliability of simulation and AI outcomes to uncertainty quantification, AI safety, and sustainable, resilient infrastructure on a range of scales across a heterogeneous computing ecosystem, we’ll explore what it takes to ensure computing practices and systems are both credible and responsible. We’ll also examine how career paths for Research Technical Professionals can evolve to reflect their central role in delivering impact through HPC and AI.
These conversations aim to surface practical solutions, strengthen collaborative networks, and reinforce public and professional trust in the outcomes enabled by HPC and AI.
For Students and Early Career Professionals:
This isn’t just an event, it’s an opportunity to get involved, contribute, and grow. The conference offers a chance to build connections with the UK’s scientific and technical leaders.
