The capabilities of the Discoverer supercomputer operating at Sofia Tech Park were presented at the Bulgarian Palace of the Thessaloniki International Fair. Guests had the opportunity to observe real-time simulations and learn about projects that have been carried out with the complex machine, which is in continuous operation from Sofia.

It was shown that businesses anywhere in the world can use the supercomputer through a browser and pay only for the resource they directly engage, with prices depending on the software and licenses being used.

With the Bulgarian supercomputer, the business sector in the region can gain a great value and advantage, because the nearest one is in Ljubljana, the organizers explained. 

The activities of Sofia Tech Park as an innovation hub were also presented at the event.
