The future needs
initiative
“You may not be responsible for the situation you find yourself in – but you will be if you don't do anything to change it.”
– Martin Luther King, activist and politician -
01 The initiative
Game Changer Simulation
is the strategic platform for promoting simulation, AI, and HPC as socially relevant key technologies. We create visibility, networking, and orientation – across disciplines and sectors.
02 Our mission
Simulation can save lives, improve systems, and accelerate change. To achieve this, we bring together people, organizations, and ideas from mobility, chemistry/pharmaceuticals, education, research, health, energy, and more.
03 Our foundation
We are part of the non-profit association ASCS and work on the basis of openness, neutrality, and governance. Our approach follows democratic, ethical, and sustainable principles – from the SDGs to the open source concept.
WHY?
Because simulation makes the future understandable and shapeable. In a dynamic, globally connected world, there is little room for error – and the pressure to innovate is high. This is exactly where the Game Changer Simulation initiative comes in.
Simulation – especially in combination with artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC) – helps to ask the right questions and find precise answers.
It combines data with experience, speed with substance, and vision with feasibility.
With simulation...
- you reduce risks and increase efficiency
- you promote innovation and secure international advantages
- you use resources more effectively
- you respond flexibly to change – agilely and resiliently
Simulation is the key to informed decisions and sustainable competitiveness.
WHY NOW?
Because decisions can no longer wait.
Disruptive technologies are accelerating development, planning, and production at an unprecedented pace.
AI and HPC are setting the pace. Simulation is the central interface between potential and reality.
Those who fail to act now will lose momentum, connectivity, and their ability to act.
Take action now because...
- digital dynamics never take a break
- speed is crucial
- quality counts before mistakes are made
- Sustainability is not an option, but a prerequisite
- Real impact comes from networking
Game Changer Simulation offers orientation, access, and exchange – now is the time to act.
