New York, NY — February 12, 2025 — Surgical Safety Technologies (SST), the pioneer and leading provider of ambient technology healthcare solutions, today announces its participation in the European Union AI Pact, committing to the ethical development and deployment of artificial intelligence. SST has voluntarily joined the first comprehensive legislation regulating AI systems in Europe, aligning with global efforts to establish transparency, accountability, and trust in AI technologies.  

The EU AI Pact brings together industry leaders, policymakers, and organizations to foster responsible AI practices. SST’s Black Box Platform™ leverages AI to analyze audiovisual data from healthcare environments to provide actionable insights that enhance clinical quality, safety, and efficiency.  

“Since our inception, SST has been deeply committed to ensuring that AI serves as a force for good in healthcare,” said Teodor Grantcharov, Founder of SST. “As a clinical provider myself, I understand hesitancy around the use of AI in care environments where so much is at stake. We continue to assure our customers that AI is invaluable in supporting their clinical operations and decision-making, but it is in no way a replacement for their expertise and experience. Joining the EU AI Pact reflects our dedication to ethical AI principles that prioritize patient safety, data privacy, and equitable outcomes.” 

SST’s participation in the EU AI Pact aligns with its broader vision to ensure clinical care is universally safe and reliable. The company supports the development of robust global AI standards to ensure that innovations benefit patients, providers, and healthcare systems worldwide. 

SST will contribute to the EU AI Pact by: 

• Advocating for transparency and accountability in AI applications. 

• Collaborating with policymakers and industry peers to refine ethical AI frameworks. 

• Sharing insights from its evidence-based AI tools to advance best practices in healthcare. 

By aligning with the principles of the EU AI Pact, SST is well-positioned to lead the global conversation on responsible AI in healthcare. For more information about Surgical Safety Technologies visit www.surgicalsafety.com.
