1 week agoThe Netherlands to get AI factory thanks to 70 million from Europe
Europe is awarding €70 million to a consortium of Dutch organizations to build an AI factory in Groningen. The total investment of €200 million is intended to make the Netherlands more technologically independent from American and Chinese platforms, while giving startups and SMEs access to enormous computing power. The project will be rolled out in phases. The expertise center will start in 2026, followed by the fully operational supercomputer in 2027. The AI factory combines three functions: an expertise center, a data facility, and an AI supercomputer.
