The EuroHPC Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) has launched a call for expression of interest to select hosting entities for industrial-grade supercomputers, which will be acquired by the EuroHPC JU together with a consortium of private partners.
The EuroHPC JU will select the hosting entities for the industrial-grade supercomputers and the associated consortia of private partners. The industrial-grade supercomputer is defined as at least a mid-range supercomputer specifically designed with security, confidentiality and data integrity requirements for industrial users, which are more demanding than for a scientific use.
The EuroHPC JU will procure at least one industrial supercomputers in 2024 with a total EU contribution of EUR 12.2 million. The new industrial supercomputers will be co-funded by the EuroHPC JU budget stemming from the Digital Europe Programme (DEP) and by contributions from relevant EuroHPC JU participating states. The EuroHPC JU shall cover up to 35% of the acquisition costs of the industrial-grade supercomputers.
Applications must be submitted by 30/04/2024 at 17:00 CET.
