🌐 Did you know that Europe is home to 3 of the world's top 5 supercomputers?
And guess what? They're about to become accessible to AI start-ups!
Their use already brings new opportunities to:
🔸 improve quality of life of Europeans,
🔸 advance science,
🔸 boost industrial competitiveness,
🔸 ensure Europe’s technological autonomy, and
🔸 help SMEs develop.
Thanks to our investment in the last years, Europe has now become a leader in supercomputing!
