Corti Pioneers Sovereign Healthcare AI Infrastructure in Europe

Corti, an AI infrastructure provider for healthcare, has announced the launch of sovereign cloud capabilities that position it as the first major healthcare AI company to engineer infrastructure specifically for regulated markets, enabling European health systems to adopt advanced real-time AI while maintaining compliance with stringent data privacy laws.

The initiative addresses a critical challenge facing the healthcare sector, which projects a global shortage of 10 million healthcare workers by 2030. Technology providers have traditionally faced a difficult choice between innovation and regulatory compliance, but Corti's new infrastructure eliminates this trade-off by facilitating safe and compliant AI adoption at scale.

Switzerland serves as the launch point for this pioneering initiative, chosen specifically for its exceptionally strict data privacy laws that present formidable challenges for most technology providers. Through a partnership with Voicepoint, Switzerland's leading medical documentation provider, Corti is delivering sovereign AI infrastructure in one of the world's most regulated healthcare environments. The infrastructure is scheduled to begin protecting patient data in Switzerland by Q3 2025.

What distinguishes Corti's approach is its purpose-built design for healthcare, engineered from the ground up rather than relying on hyperscaler-managed services. The platform can operate across any cloud or on-premises data center, providing flexibility to exit any provider if regulatory, financial, or geopolitical circumstances require it. This represents the first real-world deployment of sovereign AI infrastructure specifically designed for healthcare applications.

The market opportunity for this technology is substantial and growing rapidly. The global AI in healthcare market is projected to reach $187.69 billion by 2030. Meanwhile, 37% of European firms have already invested in sovereign clouds, with 44% planning to do so by 2025. This trend is accelerated by geopolitical tensions and the global race for AI infrastructure control, pushing governments and enterprises to reconsider dependencies and secure strategic autonomy.

The upcoming EU AI Act, which will enforce strict standards by 2026, adds regulatory urgency to this shift toward sovereign infrastructure. Corti's approach aligns with this broader movement by building technology that can operate independently of any single cloud, supply chain, or hyperscaler dependency.

"Most AI vendors are still packaging other people's infrastructure, models, or managed services," said Andreas Cleve, CEO and co-founder of Corti. "Corti is different. We've built a vertically integrated platform from models to sovereign cloud architecture capable of deploying in the most restrictive jurisdictions in the world. Our Switzerland launch proves we control the full AI stack better than any other healthcare AI platform – that's what it takes to build safe, scalable AI for global healthcare."

This strategic positioning addresses both immediate market needs and long-term regulatory requirements, establishing Corti as a leader in compliant healthcare AI infrastructure for regulated markets worldwide.
