This Birds of a Feather session will bring together leaders from supercomputing centers, universities, industry, and associated fields (like science journalists and HPC solution providers) to discuss the challenges in communicating the value of supercomputing for society at large. We will analyze the range of topics that need to be communicated, identify their respective audiences, and discuss possible strategies and practices for achieving the highest impact. The BoF will focus mainly on a lively discussion in which attendees will be encouraged to share their ideas, experiences, and best practices. We will also focus on networking and community building.
