The second Open Call was even more successful than the first one, receiving 74 proposals with participants from 27 countries. Evaluation of proposals will start at the beginning of November and will be supported by many experienced external evaluators from industry and academia. The consortia of the highest-ranked proposals will be invited to develop their ideas in application experiments funded by FF4EuroHPC, targeting to showcase the huge impact and benefit HPC can have on the business of SMEs. The duration of experiments will be at most 15 months with expected commencement in March 2022.
 

Meanwhile, the work with the first tranche of experiments is in the full swing. We are looking forward to experiment partners developing new, innovative products and solutions. Their results will be presented in the success stories in Fall 2022.
