$100 million for the Claude Partner Network
Summary
Anthropic is launching the Claude Partner Network to help organizations support enterprise adoption of Claude, backed by an initial $100 million investment for 2026. The program funds partner training, sales enablement, market development, co-marketing, and customer-deployment support, while Anthropic plans to increase its partner-facing team fivefold. Partners receive a portal with Academy materials, sales playbooks, and co-marketing documentation, plus potential inclusion in a Services Partner Directory. New support includes dedicated Applied AI engineers, technical architects, localized go-to-market assistance, and the Claude Certified Architect, Foundations exam, with more certifications planned later this year. A Code Modernization starter kit targets legacy-code migration and technical-debt remediation, and membership is free and open to any organization bringing Claude to market.
Context
Anthropic describes enterprise Claude adoption as requiring help with deployment, compliance, change management, and moving from proof of concept to production. The network is intended to make it easier for partner organizations to guide enterprises through that work.
