NEW YORK, April 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EXL (NASDAQ:EXLS), a global data and AI company, announced a strategic collaboration with Google Cloud to provide services that can accelerate AI-led transformation and drive business outcomes for clients.

EXL will collaborate closely with Google Cloud to help clients scale enterprise AI, turn data into strategic assets, and drive cloud modernization across priority markets and industries. This effort will help accelerate EXL's Google Cloud practice by expanding capabilities across priority sales plays, supporting global expansion into new markets, and deepening co-innovation and go-to-market execution.

Through this collaboration, EXL will expand its portfolio of Google Cloud-powered AI solutions to help organizations modernize and transform customer engagement and operational processes in financial services, healthcare and life sciences, and utilities and retail.

"EXL's performance as a managed partner reflects the strength of pairing deep domain expertise with strong execution in data, analytics, AI and cloud transformation," said Erez Wohl, managing director, System Integration Partnerships, Google Cloud. "EXL has demonstrated capabilities across data, AI and customer experience. We look forward to deepening our collaboration as a global strategic services partner."

The solution supports efficient, transparent and accurate processing of millions of claims while reducing manual effort and accruing significant cost savings to the client. EXL is currently delivering powerful AI transformation across clients in banking, utilities and healthcare.

"This collaboration enables us to scale innovation faster, deepen our Google Cloud capabilities and deliver measurable business impact for our clients worldwide," said Vishal Chhibbar, executive vice president, chief growth officer and head of international growth markets at EXL.
