The limiting factor for seeing value from AI in the enterprise is no longer model capabilities. Instead, it’s how organizations repeatably identify the right use cases, redesign workflows, integrate with existing systems, and drive adoption and change management at scale.

Helping every organization adopt OpenAI frontier models and products and turn them into measurable impact requires an ecosystem of trusted partners with deep industry expertise, global delivery capacity, and customer relationships.

The OpenAI Partner Network is a new program for partners around the world to build, sell, and deliver AI solutions with OpenAI.

We’re investing $150 million to support this ecosystem and help partners bring the benefits of AI to more organizations more quickly. The OpenAI Partner Network launches with a select group of global partners with AI leadership across systems integration, management consulting, technology, and data. We also aim to train and enable 300,000 certified consultants by the end of 2026.

Organizations across every industry are ready to transform how they operate with AI. But executing that change well requires both access to frontier models and clear strategy, secure integration with enterprise systems and data, workflow redesign, responsible deployment, and change management that helps people adopt new ways of working.

Partners play a critical role in each of those steps. They help customers understand where AI can create the most value, build solutions that fit their operating environment, and deploy them with the reliability, governance, and support enterprises expect.
