The Future of Computing: Smarter, Faster, Greener

AI is testing the limits of what today’s computing infrastructure can deliver. As demand for processing power explodes — not only to train massive models but also to solve previously intractable problems in science, industry, and society — the need for fundamentally new computing technologies has never been more urgent.
This session explores what’s next: from quantum computing to non-deterministic computing, from photonics to energy-efficient architectures purpose-built for AI. Can these technologies unlock exponential gains in performance while keeping energy use and environmental impact in check? And could Europe, with its cutting-edge research and growing deep-tech startup ecosystem, become a driving force in the next era of computing? Join us to explore the future beyond Moore’s Law – and who’s best positioned to shape it.
