Programmes HPCEurope's second high-end exascale supercomputer has found its home: it will be hosted by the Très Grand Centre de Calcul of the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission in Bruyères-le-Châtel (France) and operated by the "Jules Verne" consortium. It will be accessible to European researchers and industry as of 2025.
This supercomputer represents a joint investment shared between France, the Netherlands, and the EU of around €540 million. The EU will contribute 50% of the total costs from the DIGITAL Europe Programme.
Thanks to its massive computing capacity, it will help solve societal challenges in several areas, such as energy (e.g. support fusion energy development), health (e.g. fast analysis of genomic data for virus mutations, rapid disease detection), and management of climate change (e.g. providing high-resolution weather forecast models). It will also advance our capabilities in quantum computing simulation.

The European Commission has opened a call for evidence to collect research and best practices on how to simplify its legislation, especially when it comes to data, cybersecurity and artificial intelligence (AI). This initiative is part of the Commission’s simplification agenda and efforts to create a more favourable business environment, by... read more
The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’. RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
