NAISS is by far the largest and most widely used research infrastructure in Sweden, serving more than 8,600 users at some 30 universities and research institutes (2025). We offer a qualified and decentralised support through our branches across Sweden, to help users get maximum output from our resources.
We have just completed the installation of a new mid-range supercomputer, Arrhenius, in Linköping. It is estimated to come into production in June 2026. Arrhenius is co-funded by the Swedish Research Council and EuroHPC JU (Joint Undertaking), an initiative between European countries and private partners that aims to put Europe at the forefront of supercomputing.
Together with our partner RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden) we are also operating the Swedish AI Innovation Factory Mimer. Mimer provides free access to powerful GPUs and a team of AI experts to help companies, researchers, and government agencies accelerate their AI projects, through learning and expert guidance to access to AI-optimised supercomputing resources. Later in 2026, a dedicated AI-optimised supercomputer will be installed in Linköping.
