It focuses on developing innovative, user-driven supercomputing systems with a resilient supply chain, expanding access to both public and private users, and enhancing HPC skills. Additionally, AI Factories will be developed around EuroHPC centers to foster a competitive AI ecosystem in Europe. ACC Cyfronet AGH is a part of many projects coordinated or supported by EuroHPC JU, giving Polish researchers and entrepreneurs the possibility to benefit from their outcomes. - ## Gaia AI Factory The Gaia AI Factory project includes expanding supercomputing infrastructure, extending access to large-scale data repositories, and strengthening AI skills and competencies through a wide range of training and consulting services and a talent development program.
