Strangely enough, I had a couple of classes with Xukai.
Former energy VC with the Norwegian state energy co here. Two of the companies we invested into were HPC related—one of them developed node controller solutions for parallel processing, the other developed a platform to analyze massive amounts of subsurface data more quickly.
When the cost to drill a single exploratory well costs as much as some IPO’s, in some cases with <10% expected chance of success, there’s plenty of love for supercomputing in this industry.
