HCLTech shares in the spotlight on collaborating with Google Cloud to launch AI Innovation Zone

Located in Santa Clara, California, the AI Innovation Zone will enable global enterprises to scale AI applications across agentic, kinetic, and physical AI, according to a regulatory filing dated June 8.

The AI Innovation Zone, as per the company, will provide a “dedicated environment” for HCLTech and its clients to design, build, and deploy AI-driven workflows, advance robotics-led innovation, and “translate AI capabilities into real-world, industry-specific solutions that deliver measurable business outcomes”.

The AI Innovation Zone will be enabled by Gemini Enterprises, the filing added.

“Building on the expanded collaboration with Google Cloud announced in March, the facility brings together Google Cloud’s advanced AI capabilities with HCLTech’s growing portfolio of AI-led and Industry AI solutions expertise to support clients in progressing toward the agentic enterprise,” the IT firm said.

In March 2026, HCL Tech had announced the expansion of its strategic collaboration with Google Cloud to help accelerate enterprise adoption of Agentic AI.

Commenting on the development, Kevin Ichhpurani, President, Global Partner Ecosystem at Google Cloud, said: “Enterprise AI has moved rapidly from the experimentation phase to a focus on driving tangible business outcomes at scale.”

He added that by leveraging Gemini Enterprise within HCLTech's new AI Innovation Zone, its mutual customers will gain a dedicated environment to build, test, and deploy advanced workflows.

“This collaboration combines Google Cloud’s powerful AI infrastructure with HCLTech’s deep industry expertise, giving organizations the framework they need to seamlessly bridge the gap between initial innovation and enterprise-wide production and adoption,” Ichhpurani stated.

HCLTech’s AI and industry expertise, combined with Google Cloud’s Gemini Enterprise, will enable organisations to transition to agentic enterprises, where AI systems can execute autonomous, multi-step workflows at scale, said Vijay Guntur, CTO and Head of Ecosystems at HCLTech.

“This collaboration reflects our focus on helping clients operationalize AI across agentic, kinetic and physical AI and drive measurable business outcomes,” Guntur added.
