A digital nation driving growth
Over the last decades, Luxembourg has been continually opening up to new ideas, innovating and reinventing its economy by constantly adapting to changes and challenges. Today, Luxembourg is a global financial centre, a rapidly growing European hub for commercial space activities and a pioneer in developing a data-related standard for circular products.
Creating tomorrow's data economy
Luxembourg focuses on developing a robust data economy and a startup ecosystem centred on data-driven innovation.
The country's digital infrastructure, which is already outstanding in terms of connectivity, cybersecurity expertise and secure data storage capacities, is being further boosted, by the business-oriented high performance computer (HPC) MeluXina that opened its doors in spring 2021. While most HPCs are foreseen as pure research frameworks, 65% of MeluXina’s capacity is available to start-ups, SMEs and large companies.
Data-driven innovation will revolutionise how we do business and make it possible to deliver solutions with unprecedented speed and flexibility.
“We have always been able to think in a similar way to start-ups. Developing Luxembourg‘s data-driven, trusted and sustainable economy is a challenge we are ready to take on.”
Michele Gallo
Director of ICT Coordination at the Ministry of the Economy
“MeluXina is an important milestone for Luxembourg’s digital economy. The national supercomputer will be ranked among the top 30 of the TOP500 supercomputers worldwide.”
