Capgemini announced the expansion of its strategic partnership with Mistral AI, a pioneer in cutting-edge AI model development, and SAP, a global leader in enterprise application software. This enhanced collaboration is designed to accelerate growth for regulated industries by transforming business operations and driving better outcomes through a broad spectrum of generative AI (gen AI) solutions.
By combining Mistral AI’s advanced gen AI models with SAP’s Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP), Capgemini will deliver secure, scalable, and tailored AI-driven innovations. These solutions are specifically built for industries with stringent data privacy and compliance needs—such as financial services, the public sector, aerospace & defense, and energy & utilities.
Through this collaboration, Capgemini will develop a portfolio of accessible AI-powered business use cases that deliver measurable results while maintaining a lower carbon footprint. This initiative marks a significant step toward making AI more responsible and sustainable for enterprises operating in sensitive and heavily regulated environments.
Meeting the Evolving Needs of Regulated Enterprises
Today’s enterprises are under increasing pressure to optimize operations and make faster, data-informed decisions. Business AI and generative AI are proving to be key enablers—boosting agility, supporting crisis preparedness, and enabling swift responses to evolving market demands.
By adopting these technologies, organizations can significantly enhance customer personalization, adapt their supply chains to meet niche demands, and embed high-value digital services into their offerings. However, for regulated sectors, the adoption of such technologies is often hindered by strict security and compliance standards. Capgemini’s approach addresses this challenge head-on by ensuring all AI models operate within secure, self-hosted environments, such as SAP BTP.
Unlocking Industry-Specific AI Use Cases
As part of this expanded alliance, Capgemini will offer more than 50 pre-built, industry-specific business AI use cases, many of which are validated by SAP and powered by Mistral AI’s innovative models. These use cases are categorized by sector and process, supporting rapid deployment and scalable innovation.
Key examples include:
-
Aerospace & Defense: Augmented field workers empowered to resolve operational non-conformities more efficiently.
-
Energy & Utilities: Drone-enabled inspections that support predictive maintenance and deliver actionable insights.
-
Cross-Industry: Intelligent indirect purchasing tools that streamline supplier selection and procurement processes.
These solutions are developed with a strong emphasis on ethical and responsible AI, incorporating built-in governance and compliance frameworks to ensure data integrity and security.
