LUMI AI Factory Hubs

We bring AI, advanced technology, and community straight to you

Step into the AI Factory Hubs where ideas, people, and our world-class resources come together.

A core part of the LUMI AI Factory community are our AI Factory Hubs – vibrant spaces where students, researchers, and companies learn, connect, and turn ideas into real solutions.The idea is simple: make high-performance computing, AI expertise, and community support easier to access where innovation already happens. The hubs are homes for AI communities, offering space for events, day-to-day work, and hands-on collaboration.
