en.Wedoany.com Reported - Bull and Hon Hai Technology Group (Foxconn) announced a strategic milestone: they will produce key AI system components in Europe and commercialize them under the Bull brand. This achievement is based on a partnership announced on June 1, 2026, aimed at combining Bull's expertise in AI system design and deployment with Foxconn's industrial scale and supply chain capabilities to manufacture AI infrastructure in Europe for AI factories and AI cloud providers.
With the NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 platform, the collaboration has entered the execution phase, turning the industrial vision into reality by producing advanced AI systems in Europe and paving the way for future support of broader technology architectures. The systems will be manufactured and undergo initial testing at Foxconn's facilities in the Czech Republic, followed by assembly, integration, and full validation at Bull's plant in Angers, France. These AI servers and data centers, designed for the most demanding AI workloads of the Agentic AI era, will meet the needs of next-generation cloud providers, cloud service providers, and emerging AI factories in Europe and beyond.
Beyond hardware, the ability to manage and operate AI infrastructure end-to-end is becoming crucial. Bull provides an AI software layer embedded with AI use cases and data science expertise, enabling customers to better control system deployment, security, and optimization, extending the "Made in Europe" model from manufacturing to operations. Together, these advancements reinforce the partnership's ambition: to build a more resilient and efficient AI supply chain in Europe with competitive time-to-market, while providing scalable, high-performance infrastructure for the region's most demanding AI workloads.
Emmanuel Le Roux, CEO of Bull, stated that the collaboration with Foxconn marks a turning point in the development of Europe's AI infrastructure manufacturing capabilities, integrating system design, industrialization, and supply chain execution in France and the Czech Republic. "Made in Europe" serves Bull's global AI ambitions, and with the introduction of the NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72, this vision has been translated into concrete solutions for next-generation AI deployments. James Wu, Vice President of Foxconn, noted that Foxconn is proud to partner with Bull and NVIDIA to help lay the foundation for AI factories, sovereign AI, and next-generation data center infrastructure in Europe, creating an ecosystem that can accelerate Europe's AI ambitions and enhance its long-term technological competitiveness by combining the strengths of all parties.
Serge Palaric, Vice President of Alliances, Global CSP & ISV EMEA at NVIDIA, believes that the collaboration based on the NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 represents the deep industrial commitment needed to support the next chapter of European AI. By establishing high-performance AI manufacturing in France and the Czech Republic, European enterprises, AI factories, and cloud providers can access global advanced computing capabilities on their own terms. Arnaud Bertrand, CTO of Outscale, commented that this is a decisive step for European digital and industrial sovereignty, setting a new benchmark for a resilient end-to-end European AI supply chain. Damien Lucas, CEO of Scaleway, added that the collaboration brings a more European alternative to the next-generation AI server market, helping to ensure freedom from non-European extraterritorial laws and limit technological dependencies.
