Google Cloud, Liberty Global strike five-year AI partnership

The partnership will deploy Google’s Gemini AI models to enhance network reliability, security, and customer services for Liberty Global’s 80 million European connections, the companies said.

  • On Feb 3, 2026, Liberty Global and Google Cloud agreed to a five-year partnership to embed AI across Liberty Global's European operations, deploying Google's Gemini models.
  • To accelerate Liberty Global's digital transformation, the companies aim to embed AI at scale while improving network reliability and security, pursuing autonomous network operations, and prioritizing data sovereignty and privacy.
  • Gemini models are being integrated into the Horizon TV platform to enable smarter search and enhance care channels, while Google products and smart-home devices will be offered through Virgin Media O2, Telenet, VodafoneZiggo, and Sunrise, targeting SMEs with cloud, cybersecurity, and AI services.
  • Customers will receive new AI-powered services, devices, and TV experiences, while autonomous network operations aim to reduce manual work and the partnership targets cost efficiencies and new revenue streams for SMEs.
  • The deal consolidates prior work including Atlas Edge, Formula E activations, and Liberty Blume digitization, but the companies cautioned these plans are forward-looking and subject to regulatory and market risks.
