Strengthening the scientific and technological bases of the Union is increasingly vital for its long-term competitiveness and strategic autonomy, while preserving an open economy in the Union. AI has the potential to accelerate scientific discovery and enhance research capabilities across all domains. It is therefore essential that, in addition to researchers, private and public AI users, in particular small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), start-ups and scale-ups, within the Union benefit from world-class supercomputing infrastructures in order to sustain and advance Europe’s leadership in research and innovation.
