In a groundbreaking stride for healthcare technology, Copenhagen-based Corti has partnered with Atomico to pioneer Europe's first sovereign healthcare AI infrastructure, marking a significant phase in AI-driven medical advancements.
This initiative, led by Corti CEO Andreas Cleve and Atomico partner Laura Connell, aims to transform patient care by providing secure, scalable AI solutions tailored for European health systems.
The Dawn of Sovereign AI in Healthcare
The recent deployment in Switzerland represents a critical first step, enabling trusted AI integrations in some of Europe’s most challenging healthcare markets.
With 44% of European firms planning to adopt sovereign cloud solutions by 2025, Corti’s infrastructure is poised to meet a growing demand for data security and compliance.
A History of Innovation and Funding
Founded in 2016, Corti has been at the forefront of AI healthcare solutions, previously raising $60 million in a Series B round co-led by Atomico and Prosus Ventures in 2023, at a valuation of $260 million.
This funding has fueled Corti’s mission to support overburdened healthcare staff globally, handling over 250,000 daily patient interactions with AI-driven co-pilot tools.
Impact on European Healthcare Systems
The introduction of this AI infrastructure promises to enhance clinical workflows, offering real-time support during patient consultations and reducing administrative burdens on medical professionals.
By focusing on sovereign solutions, Corti addresses critical concerns around data privacy, ensuring that sensitive health information remains within regional jurisdictions.
Looking to the Future of AI in Medicine
Experts predict that this wave of AI infrastructure will pave the way for more consistent, cost-effective, and explainable AI systems, moving beyond hype to reliable healthcare applications.
Corti’s shift from direct end-user sales to providing infrastructure for other AI healthcare companies, as noted by CEO Andreas Cleve, signals a strategic pivot that could redefine industry standards.
As global competition intensifies with tech giants like Microsoft and Amazon entering the healthcare AI space, Corti and Atomico’s collaboration positions Europe as a potential leader in this transformative field.
