Shaping Europe’s Supercomputing Landscape: EuroHPC’s Latest Initiatives and Opportunities

The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) is a joint initiative, pooling together the resources of the European Union, 34 European countries and 3 private partners to develop a World Class Supercomputing Ecosystem in Europe. The EuroHPC JU has already procured nine supercomputers, located across Europe. Three of these EuroHPC supercomputers are now ranked among the world’s top 10 most powerful supercomputers: LUMI in Finland, Leonardo in Italy and MareNostrum 5 in Spain. No matter where in Europe they are located, European scientists and users from the public sector and industry can benefit from these EuroHPC supercomputers, which all rank among the world’s most powerful. 2024 will mark the year in which Europe will achieve exascale capabilities with JUPITER, a groundbreaking new EuroHPC system located in Germany, the first of its calibre in Europe. In parallel, the EuroHPC JU is developing a leading European quantum computing infrastructure and implementing an ambitious research and innovation programme to develop a full European supercomputing supply chain from processors and software to applications and know how to develop strong European expertise. Join this session, to hear how the EuroHPC JU is delivering on its mission to make Europe a world leader in supercomputing while empowering European users, achieving HPC excellence in Europe. You will also learn more about ongoing opportunities to boost European Research and Innovation and power European AI.
