AI chip demonstrators for EU compute infrastructure
This call funds working prototypes of AI computer chips designed by European chip companies, which are then tested on a shared EU evaluation platform. The call does not state how much money one applicant can receive. It is aimed at companies designing chips that are physically integrated with system partners, so applicants should expect to need partners.
