ZAGREB, July 18, 2018 – A grant agreement worth nearly 200 million kuna from EU funds, earmarked for the purchase of a mega computer which will be used for top scientific research and data collection, was signed in the Science and Education Ministry on Wednesday.
The money will be used for the purchase of a mega computer which will be ten to twenty times stronger than the existing capacities in Croatia. It will be distributed in four cities – Zagreb, Osijek, Rijeka and Split.
The computer will enable science and higher education institutions in Croatia to focus on their development, research projects and excellence, said Spomenka Đurić, State Secretary in the Regional Development and EU Funds Ministry.
