"The Acer Edu Summit Asia Pacific 2025 reaffirms Acer's dedication to empowering learners and educators with the technology they require to succeed in today's more digital world", said Andrew Hou, President of Pan Asia Pacific Regional Operations, Acer Inc. Through collaboration and innovation with like-minded partners, we want to contribute to creating a future where technology enriches and makes learning more accessible."
While AI continues to shape the education world, the summit provided a stage for the exchange of ideas and best practices on driving digital literacy and classroom innovation through ed-tech integration. Acer exhibited its end-to-end AI-enabled device ecosystem and education solution portfolio, built to improve teaching methods, reduce administrative burdens, and increase student engagement.
Altos Computing, the subsidiary of Acer, introduced its newest AI servers and AI workstations alongside Altos aiWorks AI computing platform, revealing high-performance systems designed to address growing demands of generative AI and large model training.
One of the features of Altos aiWorks AI computing platform is its elastic GPU resource sharing capability, which facilitates multiple users' sharing of computer resources. It is especially suitable for the education industry, under which multiple students or educational organizations can simultaneously engage in high-performance computing and learning activities, bringing greater collaboration and interactivity in online learning ecosystems.
The highlight was one of their high-performance platforms showcased during the event Altos BrainSphere R680 F7 Server, a strong and flexible system capable of holding up to eight NVIDIA H200 Tensor Core GPUs or RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs, is for compute-intensive, graphics-intensive, and AI workloads. Looking forward, Altos Computing will expand its high-end AI server family in early Q3 with the introduction of two advanced systems; Altos BrainSphereTM R880 F6, an HGX-based NVIDIA B200 AI server, and Altos BrainSphereTM R780 F7, an MGX-based 4U/8GPU AI server. These systems underscore Altos' dedication to fueling AI innovation in education, enterprise, and research.
The event also included interactive exhibits from tech partners like Intel, Microsoft, and Google, while Acer's subsidiary AOPEN, Acer's SpatialLabs stereoscopic solution line, and the Predator gaming brand showcased how esports and immersive learning can be leveraged in a classroom environment.
