Programmes Digital, Industry & Space HPCThe Digital Europe programme provides funds for the acquisition of JUPITER, the first exascale computer in Europe.
JUPITER will contain high-powered, energy efficient processors, including also first prototypes of ‘made in the EU’ processors. Its computing power will support the development of high-precision models of complex systems and applications, such as:
After its installation in the second half of 2024, JUPITER will be made available to the scientific community, industries, and the public sector across Europe. Hundreds of applications will be run in areas such as climate change and weather forecasting, material science, bio-engineering, and training large language models. Jupiter will be accessible to startups across Europe to train and deploy generative AI models.
Once operational JUPITER joins the existing supercomputers of the EuroHPC JU already in operation: MareNostrum in Spain, LEONARDO in Italy, LUMI in Finland, Discoverer in Bulgaria, MeluXina in Luxembourg, Vega in Slovenia, Karolina in Czechia, and Deucalion in Portugal – all combining to put a total of almost two billion billion calculations per second, thus confirming Europe as a world supercomputing power.

AI Continent Deployment: Best use of technologies
The European Commission has published the recording and presentations from its 18 December 2025 info session on the call topics Data Space for Manufacturing (DIGITAL-2026-DSM-AI-09-DS-MANUFACTUR-STEP) and European Digital Media Observatory hubs (DIGITAL-2026-BESTUSE-TECH-EDMO-09-HUBS). The slides and recording are available on ... read more
If you’ve never heard of Limecraft, you’re clearly not working in the media sector. Their SaaS platform provides integrated workflows for media management, scripted and unscripted TV, and subtitling and localisation. It is used by leading broadcasting companies – such as BBC, VRT, NPO… – and production firms of which De Mensen or Hotel Hungaria might ring a bell (at least if you are Belgian).
NCP Flanders went to Ghent to interview Maarten Verwaest, CEO and cofounder, about how he sees Horizon 2020. Limecraft is a partner in the MeMAD project, which is a collaborative RIA project submitted to an ICT call topic.
