SUMMARY:The Ecosystem for Research Networking Summit 2025
DESCRIPTION:VIRTUAL EVENT \n\n\n\n\nPRESENTATIONS AND REPORTING FROM THIS MEETING\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe virtual Ecosystem for Research Networking (ERN) Summit 2025 was held on April 23rd. The theme of Summit 2025 was Addressing Advanced Technologies\, Quantum\, AI\, and Workforce Development. This free conference was open to both researchers and educators at R1 and non-R1 institutions\, industry\, and government leaders. \n\n\n\nThe keynote speaker was Dan Stanzione\, Ph.D.\, Associate Vice President for Research\, Executive Director\, Texas Advanced Computer Center (TACC). This was followed up by three panels discussing the impact of AI and Quantum on regional economic and workforce initiatives\, industry-academic partnerships for preparing the workforce\, and perspectives from non-R1 institutions. Participants heard from industry\, domain researchers\, and CI professionals\, and joined in discussions on the impacts these advanced technologies are having in the research community. \n\n\n\nAgenda \n\n\n\n(All times are EDT) \n\n\n\n12:00 – 12:15 Welcome  \n\n\n\nSummit 25 Co-Chairs – Forough Ghahramani\, Ed.D.\, Vice President for Research & Innovation\, NJedge \n\n\n\nMaureen Dougherty\, Ecosystem for Research Networking (consultant) \n\n\n\nOpening Remarks                        Barr von Oehsen\, Ph.D.\, Director\, Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center \n\n\n\n12:15 – 1:15 Keynote Speaker \n\n\n\nDan Stanzione\, Ph.D.\, Executive Director\, Texas Advanced Computer Center (TACC)\,  Associate Vice President for Research\, UT-Austin\,  \n\n\n\n“AI and HPC\, or AI Ends HPC?” \n\n\n\n1:15 – 2:15 Panel 1: Regional Economic and Workforce Initiatives for AI and QuantumExplore the interplay between advanced technologies and regional innovation ecosystems. \n\n\n\nModerator: Barr von Oehsen\, Ph.D.\, Director Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center \n\n\n\nPanelists: \n\n\n\n\nCraig B.
