Serbia

Serbia offers free GPU compute to universities and start-ups on a national AI platform at the State Data Centre in Kragujevac, with a second data centre block of up to 16 MW planned.

The National Platform for Artificial Intelligence sits in the government data centre in Kragujevac. The Office for IT and eGovernment lists four NVIDIA DGX A100 systems, an expansion with six DGX H200 systems scheduled for 2025 and a third system for 2026. It is free for universities, scientific institutes and domestic start-ups in science and technology parks. The government said in April 2024 that projects for a second block of up to 16 MW were ready. Serbia adopted an AI strategy for 2025 to 2030 in January 2025 and was selected for an AI Factory Antenna in October 2025.

AI policy and activity

Reported by Tanjug: the government adopted the Strategy for the Development of Artificial Intelligence 2025 to 2030 on 10 January 2025 as an umbrella document for later AI legislation. We did not read the strategy text.

Power and grid

We did not fetch Serbian grid operator pages. The 16 MW figure is a planned block size stated by the government, not a grid connection.
