European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU)

Headquarters evidence

The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) is a legal and funding entity, created in 2018 and located in Luxembourg to lead the way in European supercomputing.

EuroHPC JU is an EU Joint Undertaking — an EU body created by Council Regulation, not a company with a corporate headquarters — so the EU body or consortium scope applies structurally rather than as a fallback for unknown.

Evidence boundaries

Organisation listings identify a reviewed canonical record. Headquarters is independent of incorporation, registered offices, ownership, hosting and runtime. Model listings show an association in the source register; they do not by themselves establish model creation, current API availability, hosting location or infrastructure ownership.

Profile note

The public compute layer. Twelve procured supercomputers, 19 AI Factories, 13 AI Factory Antennas, and an in-flight tender for up to seven AI Gigafactories. For anyone building a European model without VC money, an EuroHPC allocation is the funding — EuroLLM's entire compute budget was a single Extreme Scale Access grant. Practical guidance for LLM builders: the 'AI and Data-Intensive Applications Access' call is continuously open and is the correct door for foundation-model training; Extreme Scale Access is the door for a genuinely large run; Benchmark Access first is the standard way to bui…
