      abstract     = {The Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) provides immense
                      computing power to the national and international research
                      community. It performs cutting-edge research in, e.g.,
                      High-Performance Computing (HPC), operating systems,
                      federated systems and data, Quantum computing, and
                      computational science. The latter is mainly driven by the
                      Simulation and Data Labs (SDLs), support structures which
                      bridge the gap between various domains and the
                      infrastructure. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is penetrating
                      most of the scientific domains and is hence a topic
                      indispensable to research. The advancement of AI
                      technologies in combination with the massive growth of data
                      demand scalable algorithms and systems to efficiently train
                      AI models. Therefore, intertwined AI and HPC development is
                      becoming more and more a core component of the SDLs. JSC is
                      involved in major lighthouse projects such as in the
                      Large-scale Artificial Intelligence Open Network (LIAON),
                      West-AI, and in the establishment of a National Competence
                      Center for AI, HPC, and big data analytics in the EuroCC 2
                      project. The most prominent AI project, which is coordinated
                      by JSC, is the European Center of Excellence in Exascale
                      Computing RAISE.JSC is using this momentum and aims at
                      matching the gathered expertise in AI and HPC to use cases
                      from regional and supra-regional industry. The Industry
                      Relation Team (IRT) at JSC, established in 2015, represents
                      the first contact point to commercial partners. It is the
                      matchmaking component between external business demands and
                      JSC’s expertise in HPC hardware and software development.
                      The IRT provides consulting services, is responsible for
                      selling compute cycles on JSC’s HPC and Quantum
                      infrastructure, and channels domain-specific expertise to
                      customers. The projects managed by the IRT cover a wide
                      range of industrial sectors, reaching from the automobile
                      industry over engineering service providers to healthcare
                      companies. These activities integrate smoothly into the
                      EuroCC 2 project, which furthermore pushes knowledge
                      transfer to the public and scientific sectors.All these
                      transfer activities are continuously converging into a
                      service landscape to be regionally offered to companies.
                      This will be realized in the context of the Agency for
                      Cognitive Computing (ACC), a structural change project that
                      is currently brought on its way. The ACC will provide
                      services on various levels to stakeholders in the Rhenish
                      region. Its competence network together with the expertise,
                      infrastructure, and development platforms of the
                      Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ) and its partners will
                      facilitate the adoption of cutting-edge research methods in
                      AI, Quantum, and HPC by local companies. This offer will be
                      complemented by a massive enhancement of the German-wide
                      most successful dual degree program in
                      Mathematical-Technical Software Development, which is
                      jointly offered by FZJ and the Aachen University of Applied
                      Sciences – Campus Jülich. This program already has a long
                      tradition and the students work towards their B.Sc. degree
                      and a qualification from the Chamber of Industry and
                      Commerce. In collaboration with local industrial partner,
                      the next-generation of data scientists educated in
                      cutting-edge research topics and capable of using FZJ’s
                      infrastructure are grown. This way, an effective transfer of
                      knowledge to application-relevant problem setups in regional
                      industry is facilitated.},
