We Qualified for the ASC26 final!!

We received “We are pleased to inform you that your team has successfully advanced to the final stage of the ASC Student Supercomputer Challenge 2026”. And we couldn’t be more excited.

This is huge, from 350 teams competing to get to the finals we entered in the group for the finals, where 25 teams will compete for 1 week, racking, configuring and running 7 different scientific applications and benchmarks.

Travel isn’t cheap though, and we’re looking for anyone who wants to help us make this happen. Every contribution gets us closer to our goal of representing our country.

We need to cover 6 flights of USD 2500 each, for the total of USD 15000.

You can support us here:

  • Cafecito
  • Alias ARS: teamcarpinchos
  • Alias USD: teamcarpinchos.usd

We’d like to thank all the people that support us to make this travel possible, Nicolas Wolovick for always being there when we need him, Luis Biedma for the support along getting the funding for the travel, Alejandro Ismael Silva for always working so hard to get things done.

As always we will do our best to represent Argentina and Latin America.
