Programmes Digital, Industry & Space HPC AI ContinentThe EuroHPC Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) has launched two calls for expressions of interest to select hosting entities that will host and operate AI-optimised supercomputers, AI experimental platforms and AI factories across Europe, to be funded under the Digital Europe programme.
EuroHPC will deploy AI-dedicated supercomputing and service infrastructures to support the further development of a highly competitive and innovative AI Ecosystem in the European Union.
The AI Factories initiative seeks to establish a number of comprehensive one-stop shops for AI users, including start-ups, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and scientific researchers. They will provide streamlined access to a wide range of AI services, including essential tools, skills development, and user support. The aim of AI factories is to provide the European scientific community at large with enhanced access to AI optimised computing capabilities for the large-scale training and development of general-purpose AI models, and for the development, validation and running of emerging AI applications.
The two calls for expressions of interest are each tailored to different types of hosting entities:
Both calls have multiple cut-off dates and will remain open until the final deadline on 31 December 2025. The first cut-off deadline for applications is 4 November 2024.
More information on the two calls can be found in the EuroHPC press release.

The EIT (European Institute of Innovation and Technology) wants the three corners of the knowledge triangle to join forces to create succesful businesses. They consist of ten knowledge and innovation communities (KIC) each focussing on a specific sector. The KIC on Climate previously launched the 'Green Horizons farmers network', which foste... read more
The ROOT project obtained funding under Horizon 2020 topic ‘EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment’. The project, which ran from November 2020 to July 2022, aimed to demonstrate the benefit of Galileo OSNMA signal to increase the robustness of critical telecom infrastructures.
The Flanders-based company Septentrio contributed substantially to completing this objective together with the other ROOT partners. The results of the project partially close a gap in the security of telecommunication networks dependent on satellite-derived time, with indirect benefits in curbing illegal attempts to disrupt network services.
