Bull Doubles Supercomputer Production Amid EU Investment and Memory Supply Challenges
French supercomputer maker Bull has doubled its production capacity at its Angers factory to meet rising European demand, supported by the EU's €7 billion investment in supercomputing from 2021 to 2027. Bull leads in local sourcing of components, now at 70%, but European memory chip production remains a significant gap, with reliance on Asian manufacturers like Samsung and Micron. The company highlights ongoing efforts to develop European processors, while memory supply challenges and rising prices persist.
