From June 23 to 25, HammerHAI joined industry and research partners at Vehicle Tech Week Europe 2026 in Stuttgart, Germany, as part of the EXCELLERAT P2 Industry–Academia Collaboration area to showcase how artificial intelligence can support innovation in manufacturing and engineering.

This three-day event provided an opportunity to engage with representatives and experts from industry to discuss how artificial intelligence, high-performance computing, simulation, and data-driven technologies can be applied to industrial needs in the automotive and engineering sectors. Visitors to the joint booth had the opportunity to discuss their AI challenges and explore how HammerHAI supports startups, SMEs, industry, and academia with AI infrastructure and expertise for data- and compute-intensive AI projects in manufacturing and engineering.

We shared the Industry–Academia Collaboration area with partners from across the European AI and HPC ecosystem, including EXCELLERAT P2, HLRS, Technische Hochschule Mannheim, the University of Tartu, Mimer AI Factory, and MPA Universität Stuttgart. The collaboration provided a platform to exchange ideas on topics including AI, simulation, autonomous driving, and engineering applications. The event highlighted how important it is to connect research expertise with industrial challenges to accelerate the adoption of advanced digital technologies.

Thank you to all partners for the successful collaboration. We look forward to continuing to work with industry and supporting organizations in developing practical AI solutions. For further highlights read the full recap published by EXCELLERAT P2.
