A Collaborative Ecosystem
The Partners
AI Factory France relies on a multi-layered partnership model combining a core consortium, an open network of associated partners contributing to its services, and a strong European dimension through collaborations with other AI Factories, especially the Irish AI Antenna.
Meet the Core Consortium
The Core Consortium brings together the project’s founding partners, combining complementary expertise to define the strategic direction, ensure scientific excellence, and drive the long-term impact of AI2F.
IA Clusters
Our Associated Partners
As of today, several companies have already expressed interest in working with AI2F, either on industry-specific verticals or on strengthening the public–private continuum.
The network is open by design and will continue to evolve over time, welcoming new contributors and initiatives as it grows.
AIF IRL-Antenna
The Irish AI Factory node (AIF IRL) is delivered through a nationally coordinated consortium led by Irish Centre for High-End Computing (ICHEC), hosted at the University of Galway, with CeADAR as the principal partner. It is embedded in a vibrant innovation ecosystem that brings together leading business accelerators—PorterShed, Dogpatch Labs, RDI Hub, Republic of Works and Advanced Innovation in Manufacturing—alongside key digital skills networks such as the Innovation Technology AtlanTec Gateway and Digital Technology Skills Ltd. Together, these actors create a seamless pathway from advanced research and computing to applied AI, entrepreneurship and workforce development.

AIF IRL is strategically interconnected with the AI Factory in France (AI2F), providing access to Alice Recoque, one of Europe’s flagship exascale supercomputers, and fostering close cooperation between the Irish and French AI ecosystems. This partnership spans shared infrastructures and data, joint talent development, federated data spaces, and the co-design of AI strategies and policies. In parallel, AIF IRL is linked to the Luxembourg AI Factory, enabling access to Meluxina-AI and specialised capabilities in areas such as climate and environmental sciences, energy, space, smart mobility and digital health. The initiative is further strengthened by Ireland’s forthcoming national HPC system, CASPIr, supported by the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking, ensuring robust, secure and future-ready compute capacity.
