Loka joined Anthropic’s Claude Partner Network Services Track as a Select-tier partner. The designation reflects Loka’s experience helping organizations design, build and scale AI systems using Claude across complex enterprise environments.

With OpenAI models now generally available on Amazon Bedrock, Loka is among a select group of partners chosen to help customers adopt, migrate and build with these models inside their own AWS environment.

AWS has named Loka in its latest deep-dive on multimodal biological foundation models (BioFMs), the AI systems reshaping how biopharma companies design therapies, predict treatment outcomes and accelerate clinical development. Customers building on AWS for drug discovery and clinical applications are pointed to Loka, Accenture and Deloitte for the specialized bioinformatics and cloud expertise needed to take BioFMs from concept to production.

Loka has appointed Jeff Bruce--former AWS GM and Head of Partner Sales for SMB and Startups--as its new SVP of Global Sales. Bruce brings seven years of AWS leadership to Loka as the company expands its SMB focus and builds on 500+ AI and agentic projects delivered since 2023.

AWS established the AWS Competency Program to help customers identify AWS Partner Network (APN) members with deep industry experience and proven technical expertise. Competency Partners demonstrate success delivering specialized solutions that help customers innovate faster, reduce risk, and maximize the value of AWS.

This specialization recognizes Loka as an AWS Partner that enables customers to deploy smart, self-operating AI systems that can think, plan, and work independently to execute complex business processes.
