30 years building tools that add hours back to a clinician's day
CEO at RealActivity | AI Pioneer | BOSHUG Founder | Microsoft Keynoter

I've spent my career at the intersection of healthcare and technology, not talking about AI transformation, but actually building it. In 2001, I designed a symbolic AI triage engine that eliminated pre-op anesthesia visits and accelerated same-day surgery pathways.

In 2023, my team shipped RealActivity Physician Activity Copilot, the world's first AI harness focused on hospital administration. And 2024, we shipped Wheelhouse, a model fine-tuned on PeopleSoft healthcare operations data and executive prompt workflows.

What happened in between? I trained 3,000+ engineers across GE, IDX, and Microsoft in enterprise software patterns. I migrated 50+ HIPAA workloads to Azure. I built the CMS compliance and activity reporting platforms that health systems still rely on. I earned Microsoft MVP recognition and was named Azure Most Influential, not for evangelism, but for implementation.

Today I'm CEO & Chief AI Officer at RealActivity, a boutique Microsoft partner delivering mission-critical AI for academic medical centers and health systems across the Northeast. Our focus? Tracking system wide clinical time (cFTE), CMS complaint AI, and improving operational efficiency, the problems that keep CMOs and CMIOs up at night. I'm also the founder of OCS Labs, an AI lab building industry-specific AI for government, and sectors where getting it wrong isn't an option.

I founded BOSHUG, the Boston Healthcare Cloud & AI Community, which has grown into a global network serving 40k. I'm a Cloud Wars healthcare AI analyst, a top 3% rated global speaker (Microsoft Ignite, Cloud Wars, and beyond).

Global citizen based in Greater Boston. When I'm not building healthcare AI, you'll find me at a Sicilian bakery arguing about lemon cake, sailing, snowboarding, diving, or planning the next adventure. 114 countries, and counting.

Albert Hoitingh

Albert Hoitingh

I live in The Hague (NL) with my partner and two sons, and have over 30 years of IT experience. Primarily, I've worked as a Consultant, Solution Architect, or Business Consultant. Since Microsoft launched SharePoint Server 2001, I’ve specialized in Microsoft Information Worker solutions, but started with IBM Lotus Notes/Domino in the late '90s.

Transitioning to Microsoft platforms was a natural step, and I've focused on on-premises and cloud collaboration solutions for over twenty years. I've contributed to books like “Collaboration in the Cloud” and “TeamPark”, and always consider compliance, security, identity, and device management as integral parts of any solution. My expertise is strongest in Microsoft 365 and especially in Microsoft Purview, but also includes extending these solutions to non-Microsoft environments. I've advised a hospital on Azure IaaS compliance and have significant technical and functional experience across various projects.

In my career, ensuring regulatory compliance and improving cloud security for large organizations have been key achievements. I have developed security templates and blueprints for information protection, addressing the needs of multiple governments and organizations.

Promoting Governance, Compliance, and Risk (GCR) within the Microsoft 365 cloud has been a priority, often through organizing events and creating content that bridges IT and business needs. I am planning to publish a book on eDiscovery in the Microsoft cloud, aiming to clarify this complex platform. Besides Microsoft 365, I've addressed multi-cloud guidelines involving Azure and AWS, showcasing a broader security document for a regional government.

I've been honored to be a Microsoft MVP (Microsoft 365 and Security) for eight years, having shared my insights at numerous international conferences. My blog (alberthoitingh.com) serves as a platform for my thoughts on Microsoft cloud technology and GCR.
At this moment I'm one of the architects at the Microsoft Innovation Hub in The Netherlands, working on Modern Work and Copilot.

Biomedical engineer by training, 20+ years in product (PM, VP Product, CPTO, up to ExCom), in large groups and startups alike. I've been teaching product management at university since 2019, I build my side projects with AI to scout what I'll later bring into companies, and I run Tech Speak'her, a community that prepares women in tech to take the stage.
