Comment by Ursula von der Leyen
President of the European Commission
Very large data and computing infrastructure, to train very large models. We want to replicate the success story of the CERN laboratory in Geneva. CERN hosts the largest particle accelerator in the world. And it allows the best and the brightest minds in the world to work together.
We want the same to happen in our AI Gigafactories. We provide the infrastructure for large computational power. Researchers, entrepreneurs and investors will be able to join forces. Talents of the world are welcome.

Web search confirms Ursula von der Leyen's AI Action Summit (Paris, Feb 2025) speech with the exact quote "We want to replicate the success story of the CERN laboratory in Geneva" and the AI Gigafactories vision. The InvestAI initiative plans 4 gigafactories distributed across the EU (not a single hub), so the "against" vote on a single central location is correct. Source URLs (pubaffairsbruxelles, ec.europa.eu) returned 403 to WebFetch, but multiple secondary sources (sciencebusiness.net, rcrwireless.com, ai-news, digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu) confirm the speech and substance.
