At ISC2026 last month, we showcased how ow the Hyperconnectivity service provided by GÉANT and the European #NRENs enables Europe's supercomputers to reach their full potential.
With state-of-the-art optical fibre infrastructure spanning Europe, security measures, multi-terabit capacity, and continuous monitoring — we're building the backbone that transforms standalone machines into a European-wide computing powerhouse.
