- HPC SYSTEMS Inc. (6597.T) develops, manufactures, and sells high-performance computing (HPC) systems and embedded computers primarily for scientific research, engineering applications, and industrial uses in Japan. The company operates through two main segments: the HPC segment, which offers cluster computers, personal cluster systems, workstations, rackmount servers, GPU products, network solutions, and storage systems; and the Configure-to-Order (CTO) segment, which provides customized embedded computers for industrial machinery, along with consulting services in scientific and technical calculations, performance optimization, and computational chemistry solutions such as GRRM software. HPC SYSTEMS serves research institutions including universities and government labs, corporate R&D centers, and industrial clients, with a focus on accelerating R&D in fields like quantum chemistry, materials science, and high-performance simulations.
Founded in July 2006 and headquartered at LOOP-X 8F, 3-9-15 Kaigan, Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan, the company maintains additional facilities in Chiba, Kyoto, and international offices in Taiwan and Vietnam to support its operations across Asia.
In recent developments, HPC SYSTEMS announced on July 17, 2025, the provision of an FPGA cluster powered by IBEX Technology to RIKEN for quantum error correction research, highlighting its advancements in next-generation computing hardware; it also released "GRRM®map" on March 27, 2025, expanding its computational chemistry software offerings, and participated in international exhibitions such as the 2025 MRS Spring in Seattle and CNM 2024 in Taiwan to promote its solutions. These initiatives underscore the company's strategic focus on quantum computing, AI-related benchmarks like the 5th Generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processor in October 2024, and global R&D collaboration.
