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

The UNCHAIN project, ‘urban logistics and planning: anticipating urban freight generation and demand including digitalisation of urban freight’ obtained funding from the Horizon Europe’s Mobility Cluster. The project focuses on breaking down data silos and promoting public-private data exchange across a unified European mobility data space, enabling more informed decisions and greater efficiency. The City of Mechelen is a partner in the project and takes on the role of ‘follower city’: it will work alongside the primary demonstration sites (in Madrid, Berlin and Florence) to maximize the geographical coverage and replicability of solutions across Europe. Mechelen aims to test 2 concrete solutions in the UNCHAIN project, with the aim to help addressing its current and future challenges in urban freight distribution.
