AGH University to establish AI Factory

The AGH University is to receive a government subsidy of nearly PLN 70 million for the implementation of a project of the first Polish Artificial Intelligence Factory. It will be established in the Academic Computer Centre CYFRONET. The project is co-financed by the European Commission.

“Investing in the creation of the AI Factory in CYFRONET is a key step towards bolstering the position of Poland in the European AI ecosystem. Owing to the state financial support and cooperation with the European Commission, we will expand our computational infrastructure for our university and country to enter a new stage of technological advancement. I am deeply convinced that not only will this initiative bring substantial scientific advantages, but it will have a positive influence of the development of an innovation-based economy as well. Compliments are also due to the management of CYFRONET and the entire expert team of this unit, involved in the project of great potential and importance for Poland's technological future,” summarised the AGH University Rector, Professor Jerzy Lis.

The AI Factory is to be a research and development centre which will allow Polish researchers to develop, co-create, test, and use cutting-edge AI-based technologies. It will be established by expanding and enhancing the computer and computational resources of CYFRONET.

The works will start later this year and finish in 2025.
