The new sites are part of the EuroHPC AI Factories and Antennas initiative, which has received a total commitment of over €2.6 billion. The Commission plans to announce additional AI Factory Antennas soon to offer national AI communities secure remote access to supercomputing resources.

This rollout supports the EU’s AI Continent Action Plan and complements ongoing investments in AI Gigafactories and other large-scale infrastructure aimed at strengthening Europe’s position in artificial intelligence development.
