Accenture and Google Cloud today launched the Accenture Gemini Enterprise Business Group, a global group designed to help clients scale Gemini Enterprise outcomes in the agentic AI era. The new group brings together Gemini Enterprise-certified professionals, co-developed AI solutions, and will establish a 1,000 forward deployed engineer workforce to accelerate AI value.
Part of the Accenture Google Business Group, the new group represents a significant joint investment and brings together Accenture's Gemini Enterprise-certified professionals, FDEs, specialized Google Cloud engineering talent and Accenture's industry and functional experience to help clients realize measurable business value from their agentic AI and data investments.
"The companies seeing greatest outcomes from AI are unlocking new growth, increasing productivity and resilience, and creating better experiences for their customers and employees," said Julie Sweet, chair and CEO, Accenture. "The Accenture Gemini Enterprise Business Group will help clients achieve these outcomes faster, bringing together talent, advanced AI and data capabilities, and industry expertise needed to reinvent with confidence."
"Deploying agentic AI is a top priority for enterprises today, and the Accenture Gemini Enterprise Business Group significantly expands expertise and resources available to help customers deliver real business value," said Thomas Kurian, CEO, Google Cloud. "Building on success we've seen with world's leading brands, we're combining Google Cloud's full-stack AI capabilities with Accenture's deep industry expertise to deliver transformation at scale."
As organizations shift from traditional software development lifecycles to agentic AI, the Accenture Gemini Enterprise Business Group is designed to meet clients wherever they are in their AI and data journeys—from smaller, unit-level implementations to full enterprise reinvention. Building on Accenture's nearly 50,000 Google Cloud-skilled professionals, the group will further expand Gemini Enterprise training and certification and establish a 1,000-person FDE workforce. Operating across full Gemini Enterprise portfolio, business group will prioritize four key areas: increasing adoption with proprietary accelerators, building repeatable industry-specific solutions, bridging gap between experimentation and enterprise-scale transformation with capability centers, and driving user adoption at scale.
The group extends agentic AI success for clients with solutions across Gemini Enterprise portfolio. For example, YouTube partnered with Accenture and Google Cloud to deploy a Gemini Enterprise agent during NFL Sunday Ticket surge demand, boosting customer sentiment by 11% and slashing average handle time by 37%.
