Cognizant and Google Cloud are expanding their alliance to support enterprise “agentic” AI adoption, creating a new Gemini Frontier Capability Group. Multiple outlets report that Cognizant is assigning a large, dedicated workforce—over 18,000 staff or engineers—to build AI agents using Google’s Gemini platform for client engagements.
The announced scope includes updating legacy systems, providing developer tooling, automating business processes, and supporting cyber defense use cases. One outlet describes the initiative as part of an effort to accelerate transformation across global enterprises, while another notes that Cognizant is also applying Gemini internally at scale. PR material also references training progress, saying more than 55,000 associates completed “Build with Gemini” workshops. No financial terms of the expanded partnership are disclosed across the reports.
