  • Last Friday, we held our annual company meeting, bringing all offices together to connect, catch up, and have fun. 🎉 This year, we gathered at Château de Coppet, a stunning 16th-century residence overlooking Lake Geneva. Some of the highlights: exploring the château on a guided tour and enjoying a wine tasting together. 🏰 The theme this year was Grand Cru, which literally means "great growth." It describes the moment when craft and conditions come together to produce something extraordinary. A great metaphor for how every team, every project, and every person at OWT contributes to great results and growth within the company. 🍷 A special mention to the colleague who cycled all the way from Zurich to the venue, covering close to 280km. Very impressive! 🚴💪 #OWT #WeMakeItHappen #LifeAtOWT #TeamWork #TeamExcursion #TeamSpirit #OWTTeam

  • How do you deploy an open standard solution in Healthcare using openEHR? Last Tuesday, we joined the openEHR Switzerland Symposium at ETH Zurich to discuss this question and more. It was a privilege to exchange with key industry experts. Jean-Luc Jaquier (Partner and Head of Healthcare at OWT) attended as a panelist to talk about the do's and don'ts when implementing openEHR, sharing learnings and best practices when it comes to interoperability in healthcare. Our highlights: 👉 openEHR separates clinical knowledge from software, enabling interoperable, future-proof health data that outlasts any single system 👉 openEHR and HL7 FHIR work hand in hand: openEHR is where clinical data lives; FHIR is how it travels 👉 The openEHR ecosystem has reached the tipping point where standards are mature, tooling is ready, and the market is finally asking the right questions. The opportunity to build on open health platforms has never been this real. Thank you @openehr.ch for inviting us! #openEHR #DigitalHealth #Interoperability #HealthTech #Switzerland #FHIR #OWT #WeMakeItHappen

  • The future of healthcare IT isn't a single platform; it's an open ecosystem. 🏥 Last Monday, we joined the 2026 Open Innovation Challenge "openEHR for Clinical Innovation" at University Hospital Basel. Philippe Hefti (Partner at OWT) hosted the breakout session "Creating the future digital hospital" and joined the closing partner panel. One question framed the whole discussion: if we rebuilt a hospital's digital infrastructure today, what would we do differently? What stood out across the sessions: 👉 The digital hospital is an ecosystem, not a product. No single vendor or platform builds it. It emerges from clinicians, IT, startups and partners working on shared, open foundations; 👉 Open infrastructure is what makes AI usable in care. Structured, openEHR-based data is the precondition for clinical AI that's traceable and trustworthy, not a black box; 👉 The hard part isn't platform selection; it's adoption, governance, and change. Technology rarely fails the hospital; the operating model around it does; 👉 Interoperability has to be designed from the start. openEHR, FHIR and existing systems need to coexist by design, not be bolted together afterwards. For OWT, this is exactly where we work: helping Swiss hospitals turn open standards into infrastructure that clinicians actually use and which remains independent of any single vendor. Thank you to Personalized Health Basel (PHB), University Hospital Basel (USB), DayOne - Healthtech Innovation and our fellow partners Better, x-tention and Tieto Caretech for this great day. 👏 The challenge is still open! Apply until 19. June here: https://lnkd.in/ePKDpyhc #OWT #WeMakeItHappen #openEHR #DigitalHealth #HealthcareIT #Interoperability #SwissHealthcare

  • Last week, we spent an afternoon with health insurers tackling one of CX's most persistent challenges: fragmented customer interactions. 🤔 Together with Swisscom Business, we explored what it takes for insurers to move from siloed systems toward seamless, AI-driven customer engagement. A key topic of the evening: unifying customer data is an orchestration challenge, not a technology one. Stephan Kraus (Partner at OWT) and Mark Burow (Head CX Consulting at Swisscom B2B) demonstrated live how Salesforce and Genesys work together to make smart orchestration a reality for insurers. To round things off, Nils Hafner (Speaker, Blogger and Professor, HSLU) walked us through his CEX Trendradar 2026, giving an honest assessment of where CX stands today across technology and people. Missed the event? We'll be at the Salesforce Agentforce World Tour Zurich with Swisscom to continue the conversation on CX in health insurance and beyond. Join us there! #OWT #WeMakeItHappen #Salesforce #OWTEvent #Swisscom #Genesys #CustomerExperience #CX #HealthInsurance #Krankenversicherung

  • AI strategy in London, tournaments in Switzerland. 🤔👟 This May, our CEO Pierre Grydbeck was at Code w/ Claude in London, joining Anthropic and peers from around the world to discuss the latest in Claude and the road ahead for enterprise AI. Meanwhile, in Switzerland, our teams across Lausanne and Bern returned to the B2Brun for another year. The annual Boomerang Fu tournament also took place in the Lausanne office where two teams battled it out for the trophy. 🏆 As summer arrived in Switzerland, the Geneva office marked the occasion with a team lunch on the terrace. A simple but well-earned moment to enjoy the sunshine together. ☀️ Over in Bern, our colleagues ended the month with a cycling tour through the countryside, taking in the mountain landscape before cooling off in the Thunersee. 🚴 If you thought May was busy, check back in June! 👀 #MayRecap #OWT #WeMakeItHappen #LifeAtOWT #SwissBikeTour #BoomerangFu #B2BRun #Teamwork #Switzerland #Anthropic #Claude

  • Did you know that Claude, powered by Anthropic, is at the heart of our AI offering? 👀 This week, our CEO Pierre Grydbeck was invited to Code w/ Claude in London where he joined Anthropic and peers from around the world to discuss the latest developments in Claude and where enterprise AI is heading next. Those insights go straight into our AlphaFactory®, Switzerland's first dedicated center of excellence for AI implementation. Grounded in compliance and security, it gives businesses a reliable foundation to scale AI with confidence.

    𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆. That was the underlying feeling today at Code w/ Claude in London. A few takeaways. What you already know: AI platforms are improving at incredible speed. Keeping up is hard. Getting full value out of each release is harder. The advice heard today that will shake you: 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 (you know nothing about!) Assume agents that work autonomously for days. Specialised models (e.g. security, design). Features that replace custom workflows you took months to build. That sharpens three pressures most leaders already feel. 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹. How work gets reviewed, team routines, job descriptions, all in motion. The teams moving fastest keep adjusting what they hand to AI and how to do it better. Survival, not optimisation. 𝗡𝗼 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻-𝗽𝗹𝘂𝘀-𝗔𝗜 𝘆𝗲𝘁. Mixing autonomy with oversight. Verifying output you didn't write. Costing tasks where quality is variable. Deciding what humans still own. None of these have settled answers. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝘁. Two layers matter. The plumbing that connects AI to your knowledge base, code, and the rest. And an operational layer beneath that: safe places to act, tests for things with no single right answer, monitoring for systems that surprise you. Get either wrong, and it's all bricolage. That's exactly the gap 𝗔𝗹𝗽𝗵𝗮 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗮𝘁 𝗢𝗪𝗧 was built to close. A practice purpose-built to help Swiss enterprises adopt AI, from software to business. So, are you preparing for the next model? 🤔
