PRESS RELEASE
Berlin, Germany – 20th April 2025
ByteNova (bytenova.ai), a frontier-edge AI infrastructure provider, and OpenDeSci (opendesci.org), the leader of the decentralized science movement, are proud to announce a strategic partnership aimed at expanding access to AI technology and accelerating innovation in academic research through the power of decentralization.

This collaboration will see ByteNova leverage its containerized AI architectures and edge computing capabilities to commercialize a broader range of academic fields and institutions. Simultaneously, OpenDeSci will contribute its growing ecosystem of academic resources and decentralized infrastructure to support scalable, real-world deployment of scientific innovations.
“At ByteNova, we believe AI should not be locked away in cloud monopolies or limited to Big Tech,” said Chris Anderson, CEO of ByteNova. “Through this partnership with OpenDeSci, we’re enabling researchers and institutions to deploy AI protocols at the edge—closer to where data is generated and decisions are made.”
ByteNova’s infrastructure empowers developers and researchers to train, deploy, and scale AI applications using GPU acceleration and containerized systems, optimized for low-latency, high-performance environments. This approach opens new frontiers for scientific computing—from genomics to climate models—making AI tools accessible beyond traditional lab or cloud settings. According to the team, they will soon release phase two in which users are allowed to experience the application of Edge AI.
“OpenDeSci exists to break down silos and create an open, interoperable stack for science,” said David Wang, Founder of OpenDeSci. “Partnering with ByteNova brings AI compute power to the decentralized layer of research, allowing institutions to build, test, and share scientific models with unprecedented speed and flexibility.”
Key highlights of the partnership include:
Edge-ready AI deployment for academic institutions through ByteNova’s platform
OpenDeSci integration to align AI workflows with decentralized data storage, tokenized IP (IP-NFTs), and reputation layers
Joint commercialization efforts targeting high-impact scientific domains such as biomedical research, environmental science, and computational chemistry
The collaboration is a significant milestone in bringing together compute-layer innovation and open-access research ecosystems. Crypto-native builders, researchers, and institutions are invited to co-develop protocols, contribute datasets, and explore monetization through tokenized science primitives.
As ByteNova and OpenDeSci pave the way for decentralized AI and science fusion, they invite the Web3 and academic communities to participate in this next phase of trustless, open innovation.
