Building a partner channel for the agentic era

Our new partner program, Google Cloud Partner Network, is designed to help partners thrive in the agentic era. Last year, we used AI to unlock deep insights across our partner tools; now, we are building the agentic workflows that turn those insights into autonomous growth. Key updates include:

• The Partner Agent: Integrated into the Partner Network Hub, this agentic tool acts as a central orchestrator for the partner experience. Beyond answering questions, it actively guides partners on next steps, summarizes complex assets, and provides real-time coaching for registrations and statements of work.

• The Agentic Earnings Hub: Here, partners can find new capabilities to auto-draft statements of work and monitor consumption milestones to auto-generate claim requests. When paired with the Earnings Potential Modeler, these tools provide contextual recommendations to map every available incentive down to the individual client level.

• Partner Finder: We are also extending this intelligence to customers, turning discovery into a conversational experience where natural language prompts pinpoint the ideal partners for the most hyper-specific workloads.

Finally, we’re honored to highlight the winners of Google Cloud’s 2026 Partner Awards, which celebrate the transformative impact and incredible value our partners have delivered for customers over the past year. Our ecosystem continues to evolve to meet the needs of businesses across every industry, and we are constantly impressed by their ability to solve complex, global challenges using our technology.

I can’t wait to meet with thousands of you this week to build the future of the Agentic Enterprise!
