Capgemini, Mistral AI, and SAP Join Forces to Deliver Secure, Scalable Generative AI Solutions for Regulated Industries
Paris, May 26, 2025 – The global AI landscape is entering a new phase, where innovation and regulation must go hand in hand. In a significant step toward this future, Capgemini has announced the expansion of its strategic partnership with Mistral AI and SAP, aimed at bringing secure, scalable, and sustainable generative AI (gen AI) solutions to industries where compliance, trust, and data security are paramount.
This collaboration is not just about embedding generative AI into enterprise systems. It is about reshaping how organizations in financial services, aerospace and defense, public sector, and energy and utilities can adopt cutting-edge AI technologies without compromising on compliance or security.
At its heart, the partnership combines the innovative, multilingual models of Mistral AI, the robust business foundation of SAP’s Business Technology Platform (BTP), and Capgemini’s deep expertise in delivering industry-specific digital transformation projects. Together, the three companies are setting out to create a trusted ecosystem where generative AI can thrive in even the most heavily regulated environments.
Why Regulated Industries Need a Different Kind of AI
Generative AI is already revolutionizing industries worldwide. From writing code and generating marketing copy to simulating supply chain scenarios, AI is helping businesses work smarter, faster, and with greater creativity. But for organizations in regulated industries, such as banking, defense, healthcare, or utilities, the adoption curve has been far steeper.
These organizations face unique barriers:
- Strict compliance requirements around data privacy, storage, and transfer.
- High accountability due to the sensitive nature of the services they provide.
- Complex supply chains that cannot afford disruptions.
- Reputation risks, since even minor errors in AI-driven systems could have significant financial, legal, or societal consequences.
For these enterprises, the promise of AI must be tempered by trust, security, and transparency. They need AI systems that can be deployed in self-hosted, highly controlled environments, where sensitive data never leaves their ecosystem. This is where the partnership between Capgemini, Mistral AI, and SAP takes center stage.
The Partnership: A Triad of Strengths
- Mistral AI – Known for its frontier large language models that are multilingual, customizable, and efficient, Mistral has emerged as a key European challenger in the global AI race. Its focus on open innovation and low-carbon AI development resonates strongly with enterprises looking for sustainable and adaptable solutions.
- SAP – With its Business Technology Platform (BTP), SAP provides the secure and scalable digital foundation needed to integrate AI into mission-critical business processes. SAP’s presence in virtually every major enterprise sector makes it the natural hub for deploying generative AI applications at scale.
- Capgemini – A global transformation partner, Capgemini has decades of experience in helping enterprises adopt new technologies responsibly. Its expertise in industry-specific AI use cases, governance frameworks, and ethical AI makes it the orchestrator that brings Mistral’s models and SAP’s platform together into real-world applications.
By pooling their respective strengths, the three companies are addressing a crucial market gap: how to bring the benefits of generative AI into the most sensitive and highly regulated corners of the global economy.
A Library of 50+ Ready-to-Use AI Applications
One of the most concrete outputs of this collaboration is Capgemini’s extensive library of 50+ pre-built generative AI use cases. These applications, validated by SAP and powered by Mistral models, are designed with industry-specific needs in mind.
Some illustrative examples include:
- Aerospace & Defense: AI-powered augmented field workers who can resolve operational non-conformities more efficiently, reducing downtime and improving mission readiness.
- Energy & Utilities: Drone-based inspections that leverage AI to detect anomalies in infrastructure, enabling predictive maintenance and preventing costly service interruptions.
- Cross-Industry Procurement: Intelligent indirect purchasing solutions that help companies identify the best products and suppliers faster, cutting costs and reducing procurement cycle times.
Each use case is not just a demonstration of what AI can do, but a carefully designed, ethically grounded, and regulation-compliant solution that can be deployed in secure SAP environments.
Beyond Efficiency: Building Resilience and Growth
The collaboration goes far beyond operational efficiency. Enterprises adopting these solutions can expect to:
- Enhance Resilience – By simulating different scenarios, from supply chain disruptions to crisis response, organizations can prepare better and adapt faster to market changes.
- Accelerate Innovation – Embedding generative AI in product design or customer engagement processes allows companies to offer more personalized experiences and launch value-added digital services.
- Drive Sustainable Growth – With Mistral’s focus on efficient model training and deployment, organizations can reduce the carbon footprint of their AI projects, aligning innovation with environmental responsibility.
This dual focus—on business performance and sustainability—addresses one of the pressing challenges of today: how to innovate without compromising future generations.
Real-World Proof: SupplierGPT with Brose
Capgemini’s track record with SAP in AI-driven innovation is already evident in projects like SupplierGPT, developed with the automotive supplier Brose.
SupplierGPT is a centralized digital assistant for Brose’s global supplier network. It streamlines supplier onboarding, improves collaboration, and ensures consistency across processes. Remarkably, the solution moved from idea to reality within a matter of weeks, demonstrating the speed and agility that generative AI can bring when combined with Capgemini’s expertise and SAP’s infrastructure.
Michael Seifert, Business Product Owner at Brose, explained:
“Together with Capgemini, we were able to implement SupplierGPT, from idea to reality within a few weeks. This solution enables the seamless integration of new innovations and supports rapid go-to-market, thanks to the AI services in SAP BTP.”
This success story highlights the co-innovation model at the core of the partnership: enterprises, technology providers, and consulting partners working hand in hand to deliver tangible business outcomes.
Recognition: SAP Pinnacle Award 2025
Capgemini’s leadership in AI innovation was further validated when it won the 2025 SAP Pinnacle Award for Business AI Innovation in the Customer AI use case category. This global recognition underlines Capgemini’s ability to not only experiment with AI but to deliver scalable, award-winning solutions that solve real business problems.
