REACH 2026
Reach Emerging Architectures in Computing Horizons conference
9 - 10 November 2026
IET London: Savoy Place, UK
REACH drives the narrative of the future of computer science, and is fast gaining a reputation as one of the top conferences on future computer architectures.
It bridges the gap between industrial and academic research, and is the place to meet and learn from leading names in the sector.
You will expand your knowledge of computer architecture technology, quantum computing, neuromorphic computing, and related technologies.
You’ll hear from the people driving new developments in computer architecture, including the first chance to hear from several key players at a UK conference.
This will be the first time AheadComputing has spoken at a UK conference; IBM Z & LinuxONE makes its UK premiere; and you'll get the first update on where the UK's national AI supercomputer is likely to go next.
Plus many of the organisations leading international computer science, including Arm, Google DeepMind, and Harmonic; and leading academic institutions such as EPFL, Harvard University, Princeton University, and KU Leuven.
Speakers at REACH 2026 will include
Christian Jacobi
Fellow & CTO IBM Systems Development, IBM, USA
Frederic Piry
Vice President - CPU Technology and Fellow, Arm, France
Margaret Martonosi
William M. Addy '82 University Professor, Princeton University, USA
Olivier Temam
Director, Google DeepMind, France
