Ponti
— summit
AI, Quantum, and High-Performance Computing (HPC) are converging. The leaders who shape this shift will define new frontiers for compute, transform critical sectors, and strengthen economic resilience.
Outcomes
What comes out of it.
Not a conference. A structured convening: from project ideation to partner identification to the conversations that move things forward.
Projects, new ventures, and alliances focused on the convergence of AI, quantum, and HPC, and their applications in sectors key to resilient economies and societies— energy, infrastructure, science, and security.
Geography
Where it matters.
For those building, investing, or entering UK, Italy, and European markets and research & innovation ecosystems.
The Bridges · I — III
Three bridges, one summit.
Ponti brings 75 people into one room for a full day of structured working sessions. The bridges describe the conversations the Summit is designed to generate, not as separate tracks, but as the threads throughout the whole day.
The founders and executives building critical technologies meeting the policymakers, regulators, and procurement officials who decide where technological frontiers are deployed, at what scale, and on what terms.
The teams building the frontier tech applications that resilient economies depend on: energy, water, science, compute, and critical systems — meeting the national funds, venture investors, and infrastructure capital looking for exactly these projects.
The labs and institutes producing what comes next — meeting the founders, primes, and operators moving from proof of concept to deployment at scale.
The Venue
A city built on bridges.
Venice has been a crossroads of commerce, trade, and geopolitical negotiation for centuries — a city built on the art of forging alliances across borders. We build on that legacy to convene the people shaping the next era of critical technology cooperation.
The Registry
A curated, working convening.
Every participant is in a position to lead projects, make decisions, and act.
Highlights
The Convergence Thesis
How combining classical, AI accelerator, high-performance computing, and quantum paradigms unlocks capabilities no single approach can achieve — and opens new frontiers for compute infrastructure and resilient sectors.
Domain Applications
Parallel project origination and discovery tracks: energy resilience, water & climate, critical infrastructure & cyber, health & genomics.
The Alliances
Investment, cooperation, and the road ahead with policy and industry leaders.
