Energy HPC Orchestrator powers collaborative, scalable energy computing
High-performance computing (HPC) is the backbone of modern seismic data processing. As seismic data volumes expand and geophysical workflows become increasingly compute-intensive, the industry is transitioning from traditional on-premises infrastructure toward flexible, cloud-based HPC solutions.

To Avoid Electrocution In PR And Marketing, Approach AI-Powered Tools As Accelerants
Dan Kahn is the president and CEO of Kahn Media.

Council Post: The Earned Media Model Has Changed: How Brand Leaders Can Work Smoothly With Influencers
Dan Kahn is the president and CEO of Kahn Media. A few decades ago, the earned media landscape was relatively straightforward for PR and business leaders to navigate.

Council Post: To Generate ROI From Trade Shows, Brands Need To Think Outside The Booth

Given the rise of DTC selling, some in the marketing world might think that trade shows are dying. But in my experience, this is far from the case. Trade shows aren’t dying—they’ve just changed.
