Google Cloud Stakes Its Claim in Enterprise AI at Next ’25 with Tools, Partners & Power Moves

At Google Cloud Next ’25, Google made it clear, it’s not chasing in the AI race anymore, it’s setting the pace. With a full-blown push into AI-driven enterprise tools, Google showcased how it’s turning hype into hardware, software, and actual business outcomes. Vertex AI has expanded dramatically, now powering everything from generative media to multi-agent systems, and the Gemini 2.5 model adds reasoning to its skillset, shifting from clever mimicry to something closer to actual thought.

Big-name partners are already deep in. Law firm Freshfields is using Gemini for legal due diligence. Reddit’s AI-enhanced homepage is running on Vertex. Even Samsung’s home robot Ballie has Gemini baked in. From toy giant Mattel to Papa Johns and Lloyds Bank, these companies aren’t dabbling—they’re betting big. Google’s infrastructure and AI ecosystem are becoming essential parts of how they work, interact with customers, and plan for the future.

In healthcare, Google’s AI play could be even more transformative. Manipal Hospitals and Seattle Children’s are building smart systems that assist doctors, streamline cancer research, and surface best practices in real-time. It’s early, but if this delivers, we’re talking serious life-saving potential—not just better analytics.

To power it all, Google introduced its Ironwood TPUs, supercharged for inference, plus upgrades to its AI Hypercomputer. They’re also going hard on interoperability with Agent2Agent—a new protocol that lets AI systems talk across different platforms. And with partners like Deloitte, KPMG, and Capgemini co-developing industry-specific AI agents, Google isn’t just offering tools—it’s co-authoring the future of enterprise AI. This wasn’t just a flex—it was a blueprint for what’s next.
