What We’re Looking For: A Few Bold Partners

We are looking for 5 bold partners who want to stop watching AI progress from the sidelines and capitalize on transformational technology; to move from idea to real business impact, not just experiment.

We’re seeking a limited number of partners who are:

Mid-market or enterprise organizations with real business challenges
that AI can solve.

Willing to share investment and risk
to co-create impactful AI solutions with us.

Committed to building a successful case study
that demonstrates the value of AI to your business.

As part of this collaboration, Dexian will co-invest up to $75K in AI consulting and technical talent to ensure the projects are set up for success.

Only five partners will be selected this year, so this opportunity is limited. We’re looking for partners who are ready to commit, innovate, and show the world how AI can create a new future for their business.

  • Co-design solutions with your business and technical stakeholders
  • Test early and iterate quickly based on real-world feedback
  • Focus on usability and measurable business value

Enterprise Deployment: Scale with Confidence

Once proven, we can help you scale across the business in a project ot expand, refine, and deploy the AI solution into your live environment with full integration into your existing workflows, while optimizing for long term growth.

This includes:

  • Governance, security and compliance alignment
  • Change management and adoption support
