New partnership will accelerate secure, scalable and sovereign AI solutions to UK organisations
July 8, 2026, San Mateo: Kore.ai, a global leader in enterprise AI platforms and agentic applications, today announced a partnership with Atos UK&I, a global leader in AI-powered digital transformation, to deliver governed, production-ready AI agents to regulated UK organisations.
Together, Kore.ai and Atos UK&I will develop integrated agentic AI solutions, combining Kore.ai’s new-generation, AI-programmable Agent Platform Artemis with the Atos Sovereign Agentic Studio’s production infrastructure, governance frameworks and deep UK industry expertise. These sovereign agentic solutions will provide an end-to-end proposition that moves enterprises from AI ambition to measurable business outcomes.
Mike Hill, Head of Technology, Atos UK&I said, “Our Sovereign Agentic Studio was built to turn AI ambition into operational reality and safely at scale. Kore.ai, as one of the leading providers of enterprise AI platforms and solutions, is the ideal partner to extend that capability. Together, we are creating a unique, sovereign-first AI proposition for UK enterprises that demand both innovation and control.”
The agents will be deployed in mixed human and AI teams out of Atos’ UK-based Sovereign Agentic Studio, creating a powerful delivery model for UK public sector, financial services, healthcare, defence and critical national infrastructure.
“The next phase of enterprise AI will not be defined by individual agents, but by governed systems of intelligence operating reliably at scale,” said Raj Koneru, CEO and Founder Kore.ai. “By combining the Kore.ai Agent Platform’s AI-native architecture, governance capabilities, and multiagent orchestration with Atos’ Sovereign Agentic Studio, we enable UK organizations to build, scale, and optimize multiagent AI systems within sovereign boundaries while maintaining the trust, security, and compliance required for regulated industries and mission-critical operations. This partnership helps enterprises move beyond AI pilots to production-grade AI with confidence.”
Gartner predicts that by 2029, organisations with business models that exhibit low AI nativeness will be undervalued in investment markets relative to peers that have achieved higher degrees of AI nativeness. Kore.ai Agent Platform Artemis, with its industry first-innovations like Agent Blueprint Language™ (ABL), Arch™ – a proprietary AI architect, and Dual Brain (agentic reasoning with deterministic control), empowers organisations to leverage AI-native capabilities to build, optimize and scale AI confidently.
Known as the GDPR of AI, the EU AI Act takes effect in August 2026, shifting the enterprise question from “Can we build it?” to “Can we prove it is governed, explainable, secure, and under control?” Together, the Kore.ai Agent Platform and the Atos Sovereign Agentic Studio answer that question by pairing bounded autonomy, governance by design, and full observability with the production-grade controls regulated industries now require.
