AI in Swiss companies: From buzzword to reality

  Secure and ready for the digital future with Swiss AI power.

Everyone is writing about the opportunities offered by artificial intelligence, ChatGPT and the AI revolution. But how exactly can Swiss companies actually use these technologies securely?

While companies in some sectors, such as financial services (51%) and logistics (49%), are already fully embracing the use of AI, many organisations are still at the beginning of their AI journey. SMEs in particular are facing major challenges, with only 12% planning specific AI projects.1

Studies show that Swiss companies face three key challenges in the AI transformation:

Security

In an environment of increasing cyber risks and strict data protection regulations, the processing of sensitive data by international cloud providers is often not an option.

Talent

Only 18% of companies can easily find employees with AI skills. Training existing teams is also difficult - only 24% of companies manage to successfully train their employees in AI.1

Technology

Is it better to invest in your own AI infrastructure or a tool? At 61%, significantly more Swiss companies than the European average (39%) see the limited choice of AI providers as a major barrier.1

For a long time now, the AI transformation has no longer been a question of “whether” but “how”

How do I get started?
As with all digital transformation projects, the key to success lies in a systematic, secure and scalable approach. The Swiss AI Platform offers you exactly that and helps you overcome challenges in the areas of talent, technology and security.

“What about our sensitive data?”

All of your information remains in Switzerland. Nothing is transferred to international tech companies and there are no cloud risks.

“We don’t have the AI experts”

With the Swiss AI Platform, you don’t need your own AI department. GenAI Studio’s intuitive tools enable your existing teams to develop AI solutions – without any coding skills.

“The technology is too complex”

With GPUaaS (GPU as a Service), you can use state-of-the-art NVIDIA technology on demand, without investing in your own hardware. You only pay for what you really need.

Here’s how to begin:

Start with a problem in your everyday business

The platform offers three options:

  • GPUaaS for maximum flexibility in processing power

Try it risk-free

Start with a manageable pilot project. The modular structure of the platform allows you to start small and expand as required.

Scale your successes

Once an approach has proven its worth, you can easily expand it – the infrastructure grows with your needs.
