The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) has announced two new opportunities in the field of HPC:

Call for proposals for a European Benchmarking Framework

The objective of this call is to develop a new set of appropriate metrics and benchmarks for the next generation of EuroHPC infrastructure. The call addresses two topics

  • A European HPC-centric Benchmarking Framework

  • A European Benchmarking Framework for hybrid quantum-classical computing

Deadline to submit proposals is 24 March 2026. More information is available on the EuroHPC website.

Frontier AI Grand Challenge: Building sovereign, large-scale AI

The Frontier AI Grand Challenge is a major EU-wide initiative launched by the European Commission and the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking. Its primary mission is to bridge the strategic gap in high-end AI development by fostering the creation of sovereign, large-scale European AI models

The expected outcome of the Frontier AI Grand Challenge is the selection of one proposal to train a frontier AI model that will outperform state-of-the-art models in a number of relevant tasks. 

 Deadline to submit proposals is 13 April 2026. More information is available on the challenge's website.
