Gilad Shainer

Gilad Shainer founded the HPC AI Advisory Council in 2008, growing it to more than 400 member companies, universities and research centers. The mission for the group today is to bridge the gap between HPC-AI usage and its true potential, provide best practices, and explore future technologies and leading edge solutions.

In addition to hosting conferences throughout the world, the HPC AI Advisory Council also founded and manages the ISC Student Cluster Competition, which is now in its 13th year. They also run the annual APAC HPC-AI University competition.

Little known Gilad fact:  in graduate school, he was active in the “Artificial Pancreas” project and is thus, we assume,  a big proponent of pancreas health and well being.
