Fujitsu Limited and IBM Japan have announced the formalisation of a collaboration within the healthcare domain, building on considerations first announced in September 2025.
To accelerate data integration, the two companies will promote the development of a sovereign cloud platform for medical use and the joint utilisation of medical AI solutions.
The two companies will run their electronic health record solutions on Fujitsu’s sovereign cloud platform, enable data integration across multiple medical institutions, and facilitate the utilisation of AI based on the needs of healthcare providers in Japan.
This collaboration aims to provide healthcare institutions with a cloud-based medical information system option that ensures data sovereignty by allowing control over the technologies used within Japan, while also addressing structural challenges facing the healthcare industry and creating social value.
The two companies will consider integration and expansion with multiple medical information systems, and by collaborating with medical institutions, expand use cases for data and AI utilisation, aiming to achieve both improved quality and efficiency in medical care. Moving forward, Fujitsu and IBM Japan will also consider realising patient-centric healthcare services that cover everything from appointment booking to post-treatment follow-up.
