Every organization has a question it can't answer but desperately wants to.
Not because the analytical capability doesn't exist, but because the data that would answer it cannot travel to a central location due to privacy, regulatory, or governance concerns.
In part 3 of the Decentralized Intelligence blog series Adrish Sannyasi (@DataDrivnHealth) details how Federated Intelligence Networks let organizations answer those questions together and build a capability that compounds as the network grows, without moving the data.

You don't need to be an engineer to have a say in how your organization shares sensitive data. But you do need to know enough to ask the right questions.
We wrote a plain-English guide for the leaders who approve, fund, or explain these projects. Read the full blog for guidance on:
✅ What encryption, de-identification, and tokenization do (and don't) protect
✅ The one question that decides your options: can your data leave its source?
✅ Federated computing, confidential computing, MPC, homomorphic encryption, clean rooms, and more without the jargon
✅ Questions to ask any vendor before you sign
✅ Who needs to be in the room, and who to talk to first

In healthcare, when data is spread across dozens of institutions and behind firewalls you can't touch, it stalls multi-site research initiatives.
Federated computing resolves this by running AI where the data lives — no raw records cross a firewall, and no bilateral data-sharing agreement that takes 18 months to negotiate.
This guide covers what a federated research consortium is, how to evaluate joining one, how to build one from scratch, and what separates a network that compounds in value from one that stalls at the pilot stage.

Did your AI pilot fail because the model wasn't good enough, or because it didn't have access to critical data?
At Reuters Pharma Clinical Innovation, Elke Nelson-Nichols will be hosting a hands-on workshop focused on: Federated AI for Faster Feasibility, Prescreening, and Cross-Border Evidence. Daniel Feller will host a live demo showcasing how the Rhino FCP harmonizes data across geographic borders.
What you'll do:
✅ See federated AI in action
Watch one eligibility question run across multiple sites simultaneously—harmonizing local data and identifying patients without moving a single patient-level record.
✅ Pressure-test your own portfolio
Leave with a practical framework showing which feasibility, prescreening, and cross-border evidence use cases can scale now—and what is still blocking them.

Data harmonization has always been a labor-intensive process as skilled data engineers and subject-matter experts must collaborate to write bespoke pipelines for each dataset.
Rhino's Data Harmonization Engine (DHE) streamlines that work, using AI to power data transformation workflows that run remotely.
So how do users get from messy, non-standardized local data to clean, standardized data on the Rhino FCP? It takes four steps:
1. Data Ingestion & Cataloging
2. Syntactic Mapping
3. Semantic Mapping
4. ETL Orchestration
In this clip, Daniel Feller shows how users will accomplish the first step, data ingestion and cataloging, to connect data sources and generate table context.

🔥 Federate AI Summit Fireside Chat: Cloud Infrastructure's Role in the Federated AI Era
Federated AI shifts the hard problems from the model to the infrastructure underneath it — orchestrating training across sites that never share raw data, securing the aggregation layer, and scaling compute that has to live everywhere at once rather than in one central cluster.
This chat explores what it actually takes to build cloud infrastructure for federation at scale, and where the cloud provider's role starts and stops as organizations move federated AI from pilot to production.

Edition Highlights
✅ Lilly TuneLab turns one: Running on the Rhino Federated Computing Platform, it now has 125+ member companies and 10M inferences made, all without patient data leaving its source.
✅ New in Product, VM Pools: Sites can reserve GPU compute ahead of time and scale one run across multiple pools and regions, while their data stays sovereign.
✅ Upcoming webinars and events: Join our October 15 webinar on Federated Intelligence, then meet us at the Federate AI Summit at Boston Seaport on October 19-20.
Almost no AI use cases in financial services are solvable by one team, one department, in one institution, operating on one dataset.
Yet for most institutions, centralizing data isn't on the table.
Federated computing changes the paradigm by moving the compute to the data. The results speak for themselves:
➡️ @swiftcommunity and @Google ran a federated fraud detection initiative across 13 global banks using Rhino's platform — shared intelligence that outperformed anything a single bank could build alone.
➡️ @jpmorgan and @BNYglobal reached the same conclusion through Project Aikya, where models trained collaboratively across institutions beat anything trained on a single institution's data.

Supporting EHDS build can be scoped two ways: as a compliance project, or as the data foundation every other initiative in the hospital needs.
In March 2029, EHDS will turn data engineering into a recurring legal obligation. For the 68.8% of European hospitals that don't have data quality teams, satisfying these requirements will be painful, and all the more so if they wait.
But, what if hospitals started to think of compliance as a positive driver for change? Instead of a burden, they can treat the mandate as funding for the data foundation that so many initiatives across the hospital need:
✅ One data catalogue
✅ One harmonized data layer
✅ And one governed access path
Rhino Data Activation helps health Data Holders launch this larger business transformation without moving any data or creating massive data engineering projects.

As cancer research increasingly depends on data too sensitive and too fragmented to centralize, a growing set of institutions are building the infrastructure to collaborate without moving patient data at all.
This session at the Federate AI Summit brings perspectives together from organizations working on different layers of that challenge and how they are establishing the governance frameworks, model cards, and technical standards that let cancer centers train and share AI models.

The data that matters most (patient records, molecular designs, proprietary research) can't move to meet foundation models.
As a result, innovation can't happen and collaboration moves to the backlog.
That's where Federated Intelligence comes in. It's an always-on ecosystem where models, data products, agents, and infrastructure travel to the data instead of the reverse, coordinated through a neutral orchestration layer built on privacy-enhancing technology and confidential computing.
In this webinar, our CCO Chris Laws will break down how federated intelligence is becoming core enterprise infrastructure — with real examples from networks already operating at scale.

Research shows one vehicle can generate 20–40 TB of data per day.
Now multiply that by a fleet — and the data crosses organizational lines. You can't backhaul it, centralize it, and regulation often won't let you pool it.
But, what if the data never has to move? Federated learning (FL) is the answer, but only if the operations hold up.
At ASME DRIVN, David Solooki laid out what it actually takes to bridge that gap and the infrastructure that makes fleet-scale FL possible.

Your data is valuable. Your partners' data is valuable. But getting them to work together, securely, compliantly, and at scale, has always been the hard part.
That's the problem Rhino Federated Computing solves.
At the @AWS Startup Partner Summit, our Chief Commercial Officer Chris Laws broke down how Rhino helps organizations with highly regulated, proprietary data work together:
➡️ Harmonize disparate datasets across institutional boundaries, no matter how different the schemas, formats, or governance requirements
➡️ Run analytics, train models, execute inference pipelines, and deploy agents all while preserving privacy and without centralization
We're proud to partner with the team at @AWS to bring federated computing to the enterprises that need it most.
#StartupPartnerSummit2026
300 million people live with rare diseases and 95% have no approved treatment.
The data that could change patient lives exists, but it’s scattered across hospitals and research centers around the world.
Privacy laws, institutional policies, regulatory constraints, and patient records that are legally tied to the institutions that hold them often makes bringing this data together in one place impossible.
Federated computing flips the model, so the analysis moves and the data stays put.
Elke Nelson-Nichols details why this infrastructure works so well for rare disease data in our recent blog.
