Bull inaugurated an expanded factory in Angers, France, on October 1, 2026, doubling monthly supercomputer production capacity from six racks to 12. The €80 million expansion supports rising European demand for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing, and could allow output to reach 24 racks a month in 2027. The larger plant enables Bull to build France's 94-rack Alice Recoque system alongside LUMI-AI, a €388 million Finnish project and the company's largest contract. LUMI-AI is the sixth AI Factory under the EuroHPC program, the EU's initiative for shared supercomputing infrastructure. Bull won 15 of 18 EuroHPC tenders in 2026 and also signed a deal worth nearly €100 million with Airbus to expand its simulation capacity. The company became fully state-owned on March 31, 2026, after France acquired it from Atos for up to €404 million. The expansion forms part of the EU's €7 billion supercomputing investment plan for 2021-2027. European components now account for about 70% of Bull's systems, up from 20% to 30% five years ago, although its accelerators are still predominantly supplied by AMD, with some Nvidia and Intel configurations. A partnership with Foxconn supports the European assembly of certain Nvidia NVL systems.
