NCCs are pivotal hubs for HPC and related technologies, serving as the primary points of contact within their respective countries. Their mission encompasses several key goals: creating a comprehensive and transparent map of HPC competences and institutions to provide an overview of national expertise; acting as gateways to connect industry, academia, and public administration with suitable providers and relevant projects at both national and international levels; and consolidating HPC training offers from across their country, alongside international opportunities, into a single, accessible platform.

 

The NCCs functioned as part of the EuroCC 2 and EuroCC 4 SEE projects, which received funding from the European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (under Grant Agreement No 101101903 and No 101191697).
