EU Allocates 10 Billion Euros for Seven AI Gigafactories to Boost Tech Capacity
The European Union plans to invest 10 billion euros (USD 11.4 billion) in public funding to support the construction of seven AI gigafactories, aiming to narrow the AI development gap with the US and China. The Commission expects this funding to attract an additional 20 billion euros in private investment. These facilities will house at least 100,000 advanced AI chips each, significantly increasing Europe's computing power. The initiative is part of the EU's broader strategy for tech sovereignty amid concerns over reliance on foreign technology and supply chain vulnerabilities.
