Press releases

Today, the European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) and CINECA officially inaugurated LEONARDO, the newest EuroHPC pre-exascale supercomputer ranked as the 4th fastest in the world, at the Bologna Technopole in Italy.

All operational petascale EuroHPC systems have ranked once again among the world’s most powerful & energy efficient supercomputers, while LUMI remains one of the greenest supercomputers in the world.

EuroHPC JU supercomputers LUMI and Leonardo ranked 3rd and 4th fastest supercomputers in the world at the latest top500 list released at SC22.

The EuroHPC system Leonardo makes its debut on the TOP500 list of the world’s most powerful supercomputers in fourth place, while LUMI, another EuroHPC system, retains its rank as fastest supercomputer in Europe and the third fastest in the world.

The LEAP call, Leonardo’s early access program, is now open and officially launches the pre-production phase of Leonardo. In this first phase, projects will be selected, with no nationality limits, which will run on Leonardo’s GPU-based Booster.

The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) has selected 6 sites across the European Union (EU) to host and operate the first EuroHPC quantum computers: Czechia, Germany, Spain, France, Italy, and Poland.

The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) launched a call to access its pre-exascale supercomputers. This call is targeting HPC applications with high-impact and high-gain innovative research from all fields of science.

Following the approval of the Annual Activity Report 2021 by the Governing Board, The EuroHPC JU has now published the report on its website. 

The EuroHPC Joint Undertaking presents its new Project Info Pack, a brochure made in collaboration with CORDIS to highlight a few of the JU's key projects.
