In order to address the ever-growing demand for AI computing facilities, Member States should be able to provide the Joint Undertaking with access time to one or more of their EuroHPC AI factories or AI gigafactories, to the extent that such access time is available and has not already been committed. In such cases, Member States should, on a voluntary basis, provide the Joint Undertaking with a reasonable share of access time to their EuroHPC AI factories or AI gigafactories in order to enable the Joint Undertaking to address user demand. That access time should be used primarily to grant start-ups and SMEs access for research or innovation activities. Such provision of access time should not be considered a financial or in-kind contribution by the Member State to the Joint Undertaking.
