Why attend Multicore World in the words of previous speakers…

“Multicore is a hugely disruptive technology – New Zealand has an opportunity to ride its wave”. (1)

“New Zealand could be a hub of expertise for parallel computing”.(2)

To foster a global ecosystem, Multicore World assembles “a top-notch group of speakers from around the world…(with) plenty of time for (them) and attendees to interact on a much lengthier and informal basis than one finds at a typical conference”.(3)

This set-up encourages “frank and open discussions. If this happened at SC then the press would be involved and would cause a big revolt in corporate HQ”.(4)

Being hosted in New Zealand “(with an) surprisingly international feel and active technical community”(5), Multicore World is a destination conference and “the only technology conference that I know with an economic development agenda”.(6)

Your distinguished presence is also a contribution that will facilitate Open Parallel’s self-funded participation in the SKA project. We are grateful for that and invite you to become an integral part of Multicore World’s community and help us to make it again a “great conference, as always!”. (7)
