**[Europe Announces Deployment of 35 NVIDIA AI Supercomputers, Building the Region's Largest AI Compute Expansion]** BlockBeats News, June 22: NVIDIA announced that Europe is constructing or deploying 35 AI and HPC supercomputers across 23 countries and research institutions, marking the largest supercomputer expansion plan in Europe within a year. These systems are based on NVIDIA Blackwell and Hopper architectures, combined with the CUDA-X, NVIDIA NIM, and AI Enterprise software stack, supporting fields such as climate science, medical research, clean energy, and quantum computing. Official data shows that the infrastructure will serve over 3 million researchers. NVIDIA stated that its AI infrastructure has supported more than 90% of AI factory construction in Europe, with a cumulative deployment or planning of approximately 800 AI exaflops of compute power. Regarding specific projects, institutions such as the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, Germany's HLRS, Italy's CINECA, and Sweden's NAISS are advancing AI factory construction based on NVIDIA GPUs, with some systems achieving tens of exaflops in training and inference performance. Additionally, the plan includes collaboration with Siemens Energy on hydrogen gas turbine research and quantum-GPU integrated computing research driven by the CUDA-Q platform. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang stated that AI is becoming "a new scientific instrument" that will help researchers accelerate complex system simulations and scientific discoveries. [Original Link]
