# SC Illuminations

![Image 2: hero scape](https://sc26.supercomputing.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/hero_scape_02-1024x455.png)

![Image 3: speaker at mic](https://sc26.supercomputing.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/speaker.jpg)

### Get Noticed at SC

The HPC Illuminations Pavilion is returning for SC26 with a new name: SC Illuminations. The program provides a platform for HPC researchers and technologists to share innovative software or hardware, new discoveries, or exciting technical content with the SC community.

SC hopes this initiative will attract content that would otherwise go unseen, and that it will foster quality discussions and interactions as part of a larger effort to better highlight the breadth and depth of the HPC community.

### Who Should Apply?

* * *

This opportunity provides a dedicated time slot at the SC Theater on the SC exhibit floor for up to 24 research teams or institutions that lack the resources to present their work at SC through the usual conference elements.

### Committee

* * *

**SC Illuminations Chair**Tim Osborne, Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL)

Interesting in participation? See full application details below.

## The Benefits
