The creative industries sector is one of the fastest growing of the key sectors identified by the Welsh government as a target for economic renewal. It provides employment for more than 30,000 people in Wales, in over 4,200 enterprises, and generates over £1.8bn turnover every year. Supercomputing plays a critical role in the development of games, virtual technologies, high-end visualisations, 3D animation and computer generated imagery (CGI) for motion pictures. High Performance Computing (HPC) Wales is now a leading supplier of supercomputing technology to the creative industries and has established a number of key partnerships in this area. As part of the Wales Festival of Innovation, HPC Wales will be highlighting the benefits of supercomputing technology and demonstrating how some of its customers are applying the technology.
