📣 Lees in het interview met Dutch IT Leaders hoe de RUG breekt met Big Tech en koerst op digitale autonomie:
"We beschikken over eigen High Performance Computing (HPC), eigen dataopslag en al jarenlang een niche Linux-werkplek voor wetenschappers. We hebben de mensen in huis die dit beheer kunnen doen. Dat geeft ons de basis om nu door te pakken."
