Recognition within the OpenAI Partner Network underscores Excelra’s investment in applying frontier AI to life sciences R&D data
HYDERABAD, India & BOSTON — August 30, 2026 — Excelra, a global data and analytics provider for life sciences organizations, today announced that it has been named an OpenAI Select Partner within the OpenAI Partner Network.
The OpenAI Partner Network is a global program for partners to build, sell, and deliver AI solutions with OpenAI. It brings together partners with deep industry expertise, delivery capabilities, and customer relationships, while equipping them with the resources, enablement, and support to help enterprises adopt OpenAI frontier models and products and turn them into measurable impact.
As an OpenAI Select Partner, Excelra will continue working with OpenAI to help organizations build, deploy, and scale AI solutions responsibly and effectively. Excelra brings expertise spanning scientific data curation, cheminformatics, bioinformatics, AI/ML, and scientific informatics to that work, supporting biopharma R&D teams from target identification through development.
“Life sciences R&D runs on data that is vast, fragmented, and difficult to reason over reliably. Being named an OpenAI Select Partner recognizes the work our teams have put into pairing rigorously curated scientific data with frontier AI, and it gives our customers added confidence in what we build on top of these models. Our focus now is turning that capability into research outcomes teams can measure,” said Anandbir Singh Brar, Chief Executive Officer, Excelra.
Excelra supports pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and academic research organizations across North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific with curated scientific data assets, R&D data engineering, and AI/ML-enabled research services. Its proprietary databases, including GOSTAR™ and GOBIOM™, are used by discovery teams worldwide to structure and interrogate structure–activity and biomarker data at scale.
Looking ahead, Excelra plans to expand its OpenAI-related offerings, invest in team enablement and certification through the OpenAI Partner Network, and develop solutions that translate AI capability into practical results for R&D organizations.
