Enhanced conference – New city – New congress center – More space to network
In 2009, the HPC world is meeting in Hamburg
With the unprecedented demand for last year’s ISC'08 in Dresden, a conference for 1375 with the most influential leaders in HPC, we have decided to prolong the conference program (+ 1 day) and to move: ISC’09 will take place June 23 - 26 in Hamburg, Germany. A brand new conference program seems already to guarantee ISC'09 as the most glamorous event among its 24-year history!. The 4-day conference and 3-day exhibition at the Congress Center Hamburg will provide you a unique platform to learn, network and do business, all under one roof. With over 1,500 attendees and more than 120 exhibitors from over 45 countries expected, ISC’09 is sure to be our biggest and most successful event ever.
