> The French manufacturer is also producing AI and cloud infrastructure with Foxconn in France and the Czech Republic. A €387.8 million supercomputer project is scheduled to serve users in 2027.

Bull has doubled production capacity at its Angers factory in France, adding manufacturing capacity as Europe expands computing infrastructure for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing.

The increase comes as Bull takes on European computing projects. A June partnership with Foxconn covers production of AI and cloud infrastructure at Bull’s Angers site and Foxconn’s facilities in Pardubice, Czech Republic.

The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking signed a contract with Bull on Aug. 31 to deliver the LUMI-AI supercomputer in Kajaani, Finland. The project budget is €387.8 million for acquisition, delivery, installation and maintenance. The system is expected to be available to users in 2027.

LUMI-AI will serve a consortium led by Finland that also includes Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Norway and Poland. It is the sixth supercomputer procured under the European initiative’s AI Factory program.
