EuroCC@Greece’s goal is to set up the mechanisms and interactions necessary to support technology transfer in Greece in terms of HPC know-how, applications, tools and mechanisms. We aim to assist SMEs and large businesses in delivering competitive services and/or products using advanced HPC, build awareness about HPC and AI/HPDA competences and identify strategies for technology transfer from academia.

Our service portfolio includes:

  • Access to HPC infrastructure: Contact us for discussing your HPC needs and find out which would be the best solution for accessing HPC resources.
  • Access to funding: For instance, EuroCC@Greece has facilitated access to funding for 4 “Greek” experiments in the framework of the FF4EuroHPC project, namely the GEMINI experiment in the area of CFD, the HPC FOR CANCER DRUG ACCURACY experiment in the area of personalized medicine, the CCUPAR  experiment in the area of CO2 capture and utilization, and the  PEDIDOSE experiment in the areas of medical physics and bioinformatics.

  • Consultation in HPC, AI and HPDA technologies

In this respect, EUROCC has created a HPC professionals’ hub, where all stakeholders (users and providers) can establish business relationships around their respective products and examine opportunities for putting into market mature technologies and ideas. Moreover, HPC, HPDA and AI Industry thematic events are organized in order to enhance collaboration and co-creation between the research, industrial and public sector communities, and also inform SMEs on access to resources and funding.
