The EuroHPC Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) has signed a procurement contract with Bull to deploy a new AI supercomputer in Linköping, Sweden. The system will underpin the next phase of the Mimer AI Factory (AIF) initiative, expanding Europe’s AI infrastructure. The AI supercomputer will be hosted and operated by the National Academic Infrastructure of Supercomputing in Sweden (NAISS) at Linköping University. It will support the Mimer AIF in combining cloud-enabled supercomputing, large-scale sensitive data storage, and advanced software layers to accelerate AI development across multiple industries. The immediate result is a significant increase in computing capacity and service capability within the Mimer AIF ecosystem. This expansion is expected to strengthen Sweden’s role in Europe’s AI Factory network while enabling more advanced applications across healthcare, materials science, and autonomous systems. What does the Mimer AIF expansion actually deliver? The new AI supercomputer is designed to move Mimer AIF from a support platform into a high-capacity AI development hub. It integrates compute, storage, and specialised expertise into a single environment aimed at production-level AI workloads. This includes …
