Forum TERATEC is France's leading gathering for high-performance computing, numerical simulation, AI, and quantum computing, held at the Palais des Congrès in Paris. For 2026, the event has been repositioned with a new venue, new dates, and a broader ambition, bringing together around 100 exhibitors and 2,000 decision-makers from research institutions, industry, and public sector bodies across defence, energy, health, and finance. EventFull designs and builds bespoke exhibition stands for businesses exhibiting at the show.
What makes TERATEC genuinely distinctive is that it brings together research scientists and academics alongside CTOs, CIOs, and R&D directors making commercial technology decisions. These two groups think and talk about the same technology quite differently, researchers care about technical rigour and scientific credibility, while business decision-makers want to understand practical value and return on investment. A stand that only speaks to one of these audiences risks losing the other, so it's worth having a way to serve both, solid technical detail available for those who want it, alongside a clear, business-focused explanation of what your technology actually achieves.
With TERATEC moving to a more central Paris venue and repositioning itself to reach a wider business audience beyond its traditional research base, 2026 marks a genuine step up for the event. Exhibitors have an opportunity here to match that ambition with their own presence, rather than showing up with the same stand that served a smaller, more niche gathering in previous years.
HPC, AI, and quantum computing are all, in their own way, difficult to make tangible on a show floor. Screens, clear diagrams, and simple explanations of what a system actually does in practice tend to serve visitors far better than technical jargon or abstract claims about processing power. Given the mixed audience, it's worth testing whether someone outside your specific field could understand your stand's core message in under a minute.
We've built stands for clients across technology, engineering, and research-led sectors, so we understand how to present complex, cutting-edge ideas clearly to a genuinely mixed audience.
Forum TERATEC 2026 runs from 20 to 21 October at the Palais des Congrès, Paris. If you're exhibiting and want a stand built around your business and your technology, get in touch with EventFull. We'll come back to you with a straightforward proposal and no pressure to go ahead.
