GCP – The agentic era is here: 300+ AI agents built in one day at Google Public Sector Summit to accelerate impact and advance missions

The future of public service hinges on two things: accelerating mission outcomes and empowering the public sector workforce. With budget constraints and rising citizen expectations, government leaders can no longer wait for innovation—they must create it.

We surveyed eight industries as part of our Return On Investment of AI Report, and found that among public sector respondents who report productivity gains from gen AI, nearly half (46%) say their productivity has at least doubled. And 42% of public sector respondents report their organization has deployed more than 10 AI agents. This is a new era and the public sector is helping lead it.

We believe that intelligent, mission specific agents are the future – and will help accelerate discovery, automate complex tasks, and break down data silos. This is the core principle behind our bold campaign, #100DaysOfAgents.

Reimagine your mission: From inspiration to action

We launched our #100DaysOfAgents campaign 100 days prior to our Google Public Sector Summit, to show real-world examples of AI in action. On our Google Public Sector Linkedin page, we challenged public sector leaders to change the question from “what if?” to “how do we build this?”

Through this campaign, we aimed to demonstrate exactly how AI can empower specific public sector roles and agencies in this new era of innovation.

• AI agents can help provide veterans and their families with easy access to the benefits, healthcare, and support services they’ve earned.
• AI agents can help translate dense medical diagnoses into easy-to-understand information about treatment options and clinical trials.
• AI agents can help biomedical research by simplifying analysis of complex data using secure and scalable computing power to make life-changing discoveries.
• AI agents can help break down complex data, enable effective collaboration, and make it easier to stay ahead of threats to keep our communities safe.

Mission District: Where inspiration meets agent prototypes

The campaign culminated at our interactive “Mission District” activation at the Google Public Sector Summit on October 29th, 2025 in Washington D.C. After inviting the attendees to imagine the possibilities online, attendees were able to walk through a physical showcase filled with dozens of AI agent use cases, ideas, and inspiration. Via self-serve Agent builder stations, hundreds of leaders from across government and education were able to build custom AI agents that were tailored to their specific challenges.

We generated 300+ unique AI agent prototypes through the self-serve stations* and Summit labs and workshops. These agents address real-world challenges across every domain, empowering roles from the analyst to the public health researcher:

• Lowering Costs: The Grid Optimization Analyst analyzes grid congestion data and suggests mitigation strategies to reduce electricity congestion costs.
• Improving Efficiency: This Water System Transition Planner creates detailed action plans for public water systems transitioning from chlorine dioxide to sodium hypochlorite disinfection.
• Enhancing Access: This NIH Access Assistant simplifies access to NIH resources and information for the public.

Throughout our programming, we also shared examples of AI agents that are already in place, driving efficiencies. Elizabeth Moon, Managing Director of Customer Engineering at Google Public Sector led an interactive session featuring agency leaders working with AI agents that are helping advance their missions. That session and others from Google Public Sector Summit are now available on demand.

The final step: Let’s build your agent

Through the #100DaysOfAgents campaign, we learned that the public sector has an enormous appetite and drive for learning about AI, and how AI agents can significantly speed up their paths to mission success.

By partnering with a Google expert, we can help you imagine the possibilities, and transition your inspiring agent idea into a working prototype, leveraging Gemini for Government and our secure, integrated full-stack approach to AI. This collaborative approach means you can go from concept to a working prototype, immediately.

Our AI agent activation is coming to Google Cloud Next in April, and we invite you to join us there to experience the process yourself. Don’t wait to turn your strategic vision into a working reality:

1. Browse the agent gallery: See what others have built, and get inspired about what’s possible
2. Invest in AI skills and education programs that will equip you and your teams to build and manage the next generation of AI agents that drive mission impact.
3. Learn more about Gemini for Government, the new front door for the best of Google’s AI-optimized, secure and accredited commercial cloud services, our industry-leading Gemini models, and agentic solutions.
4. Join us at Google Cloud Next: Register to attend Google Cloud Next in April to meet our experts, refine your prototype, and accelerate your mission.

We are excited to help you build an AI agent that helps transform the way work is done and missions are achieved, in this most exciting new era of innovation, technology and mission impact.
