The new call aims to strengthen the services offered by the first AI Factories in Europe, selected through a dedicated call that has already gathered the first thirteen proposals - including one from Italy - and will remain open until the end of 2025.
Specifically, the European High-Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) has launched the new "AI Factory Antennas" call to establish antennas connected to the already existing AI Factories in Europe.
AI Factory Antennas: What the EuroHPC JU Call Funds
Overall, the EuroHPC JU call plays a crucial role in building a competitive European HPC-AI ecosystem, aligning EU-level efforts with those of individual member states, bridging gaps, and promoting international collaboration.
The specific objective of the new European call is to select entities capable of building antennas to connect to the existing AI Factories in Europe and, consequently, to the related optimized supercomputers.
