As enterprises move from AI experimentation to wide adoption, one thing has become clear. Innovation without trust is not enough. Organizations need AI solutions that are secure, governed, and built for real world business outcomes. And that is exactly where the collaboration between OpenText and Google Cloud continues to deliver value.
This spring, OpenText marked two important milestones, one in Europe at the OpenText Summits, and one on the global stage in Las Vegas at Google Cloud Next 2026. While the venues were different, the message was the same. The future of enterprise AI depends on trusted information, strong governance, and secure deployment that works inside real business workflows.
OpenText’s European Summits focused on sovereignty and compliance, while Google Cloud Next showcased OpenText™ Content Aviator as a partner-built agent within Gemini Enterprise.
These moments tell a connected story about the future of enterprise AI.
OpenText Summits Europe: Building Trust Through Sovereign Cloud and AI
At the OpenText Summits in London, Paris, and Munich, conversations with clients and partners highlighted that data sovereignty is essential.
As European organizations across regulated industries such as financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, and public sector scale their use of AI, they need assurance that their data remains protected, governed, and compliant within regional requirements. As technology leaders, we have moved beyond the question of whether to adopt AI and instead must find ways to leverage innovations responsibly without compromising control.
This issue was also reinforced through OpenText’s partnership with S3NS, an alliance between Thales, a French leader in cybersecurity in Europe, and Google Cloud, to deliver European sovereign cloud solutions.
Across the Summits, three clear themes emerged:
- Sovereign-by-design AI: OpenText and S3NS are enabling organizations to leverage cloud and AI innovation while ensuring data residency, operational autonomy, and regulatory compliance across Europe.
- Trust as an innovation accelerator: Rather than slowing progress, strong governance and sovereignty frameworks are becoming the foundation that enables enterprises to adopt AI at scale with confidence.
- A shared commitment: The collaboration reinforces a common commitment to privacy, security, and openness, critical requirements for European clients adopting advanced cloud and AI services.
Across these events, OpenText positioned information management not just as infrastructure, but as a strategic enabler of trusted AI. It ensures data is accurate, secure, and contextualized before it ever reaches an AI model.
Google Cloud Next ’26: Operationalizing Agentic AI with Content Aviator
This vision moved from concept to execution at Google Cloud Next 2026, where OpenText demonstrated how trusted information can drive real productivity through agentic AI.
OpenText™ Content Aviator was showcased as a partner-built agent within Gemini Enterprise and featured in the Agent Gallery. This recognition highlights OpenText’s role in Google Cloud’s expanding agent ecosystem and reflects growing demand for enterprise-ready AI that is grounded in governed data.
This agent is one of several innovations that will facilitate simple, secure integration between OpenText and Google Cloud.
So, why do partnerships like this matter? One reason is that AI delivers the most value when it is available directly within the tools people already use. But that’s not all:
- AI where work happens: By making Content Aviator available directly inside Gemini Enterprise, users can securely search, summarize, and generate insights from governed OpenText content, without leaving their workflow.
- Context over confusion: Unlike generic AI assistants, Content Aviator grounds responses in trusted enterprise information while respecting permissions and compliance requirements. This is a critical distinction. Enterprise AI is more than generating rudimental answers. Now, we must embrace intelligent context engineering. By connecting AI to governed enterprise content, OpenText ensures outputs are useful as well as reliable, secure, and aligned with business requirements. After all, we can only generate the right answers with the right context.
- Recognition as an agentic leader: Availability in the Agent Gallery signals that OpenText’s approach meets Google Cloud’s standards for enterprise readiness, quality, and security.
The partnership was also featured in a conversation with theCUBE at Google Cloud Next, where leaders from OpenText and Google Cloud discussed the importance of governed data in enabling scalable agentic AI.
One Connected Theme: Trusted Information Is the Future of AI
Recognizing that AI is only as powerful as the information it can trust was a clear and consistent theme across all events.
Whether enabling sovereignty in regulated markets, strengthening governance, or embedding AI directly into daily workflows, OpenText is shaping an enterprise AI future that is secure, contextual, and actionable.
As organizations transition from experimentation to scaled execution, trusted information management is becoming a true competitive differentiator. The enterprises that succeed will be those that can innovate quickly while maintaining security, compliance, and customer trust.
