Together with Raymond Oonk, Monique Denissen & SURF colleagues, we organised a two-day visit to CSCS, the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre. It was very inspiring to meet the CSCS colleagues and share our mutual ambition to support and serve science with computing. It is our ambition to learn from institutions and HPC centres about the technologies they have adopted, their use cases, and their strategic goals. These two days were filled with deeply engaged discussions, dialogue, shared perspectives and knowledge exchange. I firmly believe we will continue this collaboration, mutually strengthening each other and reaching our collective goals and ambitions. A special thanks to Maxime Martinasso, Pim Witlox and Pablo Fernandez for hosting us and giving us a warm welcome.
