European Commission Selects EUROPA Consortium for Sovereign AI Model Development

The European Commission announced the winner of its Frontier AI Grand Challenge. The EUROPA Consortium, led by Italian company Domyn, will develop an open-source model exceeding 400 billion parameters with dedicated European computing resources.

The European Commission announced the winners of the Frontier AI Grand Challenge on June 19. The EUROPA Consortium, led by Italian company Domyn, was selected as the winner. The consortium will use a dedicated cluster of 6,000 NVIDIA Blackwell chips to develop a next-generation AI model. The project received support from up to 2.5% of EuroHPC high-performance computing resources. Europe hopes to achieve independent AI technology development through this initiative.\n\nThe open-source model, exceeding 400 billion parameters, will be jointly developed by multiple European nations. The project reflects European drive for AI sovereignty and independence. The initiative aims to reduce European reliance on American AI technologies. The resulting model is expected to compete with leading international models.
