The activities in the field of R&I will cover primarily the management of grants and procurements for research, development, innovation and related support services in one or several of the following areas of HPC:

· HPC applications, for example software development and R&I for HPC application software to support the uptake of new developments and innovations in industrial and scientific use cases,

· Artificial intelligence, for example the development of large-scale AI models and their integration in end-to-end solutions, HPC-AI system benchmarking and adoption of AI capabilities in other areas of HPC software,

· Services and initiatives to further develop the HPC and AI innovation ecosystem, for example training, support and networking activities, coordination with other actions, provisioning of software environments and applications for different user communities, dedicated activities to address the specific needs of SMEs, development of talents through education programmes and collaborations with relevant actors and initiatives.
