Sovereign AI

Announced commitments against government budgets and reported disbursements, by country.

Sovereign programme record · EuroHPC JU · 2021–2027

EU-Wide: EuroHPC Joint Undertaking: $10.96B announced · disbursement not on record

Every figure below derives from the same record the dashboard reads — this page is the programme as a citable object: the reconciliation with its denominator stated, the decomposition with its residual, and the dated evidence behind each claim.

Announced~$10.96B

No commitment figure on record.
Disbursed—
No disbursement figure on record.

The reconciliation. Four figures on one dollar scale, each bar a share of the largest. The reality ratio above divides disbursed by the government-only floor ($10.96B), and the field it divides by is stated so the division is reproducible. A hatched track is an absent figure carried with its reason — a government that does not publish disbursement is a finding, not a zero. Tildes mark estimated figures.

Pipeline stage: Deployed (primary-verified evidence) — 25,328 accelerators tracked. The stage is a Scrutica derivation (tier 4), computed from the figures above, never asserted by the source.

External dependence

NVIDIA hardware: high · TSMC fabrication: high · US technology: high · BIS jurisdiction reach: low. Dependence levels are Scrutica classifications (tier 4) from the programme’s own disclosures — which hardware it buys, where it fabricates, and whose export jurisdiction its supply chain crosses.

JUPITER operational at 1 ExaFLOP (#4 TOP500, November 2025), propelling Europe into the exascale era. 19 AI Factory sites across 3 waves. Wave 1 (Dec 2024): 7 sites. Wave 2 (Mar 2025): 6 sites. Wave 3 (Oct 2025): Czech Republic, Lithuania, Netherlands, Romania, Spain, Poland. 13 AI Factory Antennas selected (EUR 55M). EUR 10B covers 2021-2027 including pre-AI HPC. LISA upgrade (1,328 H100 GPUs, EUR 50M) inaugurated 2026-06-11 at Leonardo (Bologna), complementing IT4LIA.

What this record flags about itself · 8

The EUR 10B is a seven-year program total and includes pre-AI HPC.
The AI-specific EU contribution, for the AI Factories, is up to EUR 800M, with matching national contributions.
This is a multi-country program; individual country allocations are tracked on the respective country records.
Wave 3 (Oct 2025): Czech Republic, Lithuania, Netherlands, Romania, Spain, Poland (EuroHPC JU, Tier 1)
13 AI Factory Antennas selected (EUR 55M)
JUPITER is operational at 1 ExaFLOP and ranked #4 on the TOP500 in November 2025; both verified.
JUPITER's accelerator count is approximately 24,000 GH200 superchips across approximately 6,000 compute nodes, four per node. Both FZJ and the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking state 'approximately 24,000'; no exact integer is publicly disclosed, so the count is recorded as an estimate.
Update, 2026-07-14: the LISA upgrade (Leonardo Improved Supercomputing Architecture) was inaugurated on 2026-06-11 at DAMA Technopole, Bologna, Italy, alongside the new SOL quantum computer — per the eurohpc-ju.europa.eu event page, tier 1, retrieved from the publisher's own site. It carries 1,328 NVIDIA H100 GPUs across 166 eight-way BullSequana AI 600 servers, at EUR 50M total investment covering acquisition, installation and operations support. It complements IT4LIA, the EuroHPC AI Factory centred on Leonardo, and is expected to be available to users in summer 2026. Converted to USD at EUR/USD 1.1537, the ECB reference rate for 2026-06-11, EUR 50M is approximately $57.7M, which raises both the announced total and the government-only figure from $10.9B to $10.958B. A reported delay of the gigafactory call to July 2026 was not independently verified for this record and is not asserted here.
