The partnership will combine Mayo Clinic's clinical expertise and data foundation with Microsoft's engineering capabilities. The initiative builds on the Mayo Clinic Platform, which was established to accelerate innovation using a de-identified data foundation.

According to the announcement from Mayo Clinic Ventures, the Mayo Clinic Platform was launched approximately seven years prior to this collaboration. Its stated goal is to shift healthcare to a platform model built on safe, patient-centric data.
