Keynote Panel to Explore the Genesis Mission and the Future of AI-Driven Innovation

The Illinois Manufacturers’ Association is pleased to announce “The Genesis Mission: Turning Vision into Action,” a keynote panel featuring leaders from NVIDIA and Argonne National Laboratory.

The discussion will be moderated by Brad Henderson, Chief Executive Officer of P33 Chicago, and will feature John Josephakis, Global Vice President of HPC/AI/Supercomputing at NVIDIA, and Paul Kearns, Laboratory Director of Argonne National Laboratory.

The panel will explore the Genesis Mission, a national initiative bringing together U.S. Department of Energy national laboratories, private industry and academia to harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to accelerate scientific discovery, strengthen energy security and advance national security.

Panelists will share insights into the development of a national AI-for-Science ecosystem, emerging public-private partnerships and the next generation of advanced computing capabilities. The conversation will also examine how collaboration and innovation can help position the United States for continued leadership in critical industries and technologies.

At the heart of the Genesis Mission is a portfolio of National Science and Technology Challenges focused on high-impact priorities spanning science, energy, health, space and national security. By combining artificial intelligence, supercomputing, advanced experimentation and data, these initiatives aim to dramatically accelerate discovery, strengthen American competitiveness and deliver meaningful benefits for the nation.

Join us for an engaging conversation on how the Genesis Mission is moving from vision to action and what it means for the future of American innovation, technology and manufacturing.
