Gemini Enterprise brings agentic AI to Philippine workplaces

Google Cloud has launched Gemini Enterprise, a comprehensive new agentic AI platform designed to serve as the front door for AI in the workplace—empowering employees to automate complex tasks and transform business operations. 

The platform is now available to organizations in the Philippines.

A unified agentic platform

Gemini Enterprise unites several of Google’s leading AI technologies into a single, integrated environment. It combines Gemini models, first-party and third-party AI agents, and the conversational orchestration capabilities of the former Google Agentspace.

Through an intuitive chat interface, employees can access the full suite of Gemini tools to research, analyze, and execute workflows. The platform connects securely to a company’s data sources—from Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 to major enterprise systems like Salesforce and SAP—ensuring that every AI-driven action is grounded in relevant organizational context.

“Gemini Enterprise is designed on the premise that true business transformation in the era of AI must go beyond simple chatbots,” said Sundar Pichai, Google CEO. “It brings all your company’s data, tools, and people together in one secure place.”

Smart automation and open innovation

Gemini Enterprise operates on six key pillars: Google’s advanced Gemini models, pre-built Google AI agents, a no-code workbench for creating custom AI agents, secure data integration, centralized governance, and an open framework that supports cross-platform collaboration via Google’s Agent2Agent (A2A) and Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) standards.

Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian said the platform “connects to your context, workflows, and people,” adding that the platform “automates entire workflows and drives smarter business outcomes.”

Expanding AI capabilities

To extend its utility, Google Cloud also introduced a new Data Science agent to automate data wrangling and exploration, alongside deeper integration with Google Workspace and the Customer Engagement Suite.

The Data Science agent helps identify data patterns, streamline model development, and generate step-by-step plans for training and fine-tuning AI models. Other pre-built agents include:

• Deep Research Agent for synthesizing information across multiple sources.
• Idea Generation Agent for producing and evaluating creative concepts.
• NotebookLM Enterprise for distilling information from documents, videos, and web sources.

These agents are designed to work together seamlessly under a unified governance system, enabling both employee- and customer-facing AI to operate securely in tandem.

Integration and partnerships

Google Cloud reaffirmed its commitment to open ecosystems, announcing expanded integrations with partners such as Box, SAP, ServiceNow, and Workday. More than 100,000 partners are part of its agentic AI network, supporting businesses in adoption, deployment, and custom agent development.

It also unveiled new workforce development programs:

• Google Skills, a free training hub with over 3,000 AI-related courses and labs.
• Gemini Enterprise Agent Ready (GEAR), which aims to train one million developers to build AI agents.
• Gemini Agent Foundry, a global hackathon and marketplace for enterprise-grade AI agents.
• Delta, a new Google Cloud initiative embedding AI engineers within client organizations.

Powering global events

In a related announcement, Google Cloud confirmed it will serve as the official cloud provider of the LA28 Olympic and Paralympic Games, deploying Gemini Enterprise and Google Workspace for event planning and logistics to support more than 70,000 volunteers and staff.

“These programs are designed to help organizations build their future with AI,” said Kurian. “We’re delivering real business value to help companies drive ROI from their AI investments.” —Ed: Corrie S. Narisma
