3. Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOGL)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 234

Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) is an American multinational technology conglomerate holding company wholly owning the internet giant Google, amongst other businesses. On February 24, Google and Salesforce announced that they have expanded their strategic partnership to enhance customer choices and bring Gemini to Salesforce’s AI-powered Agentforce. In particular, Salesforce customers will be able to build Agentforce agents using Gemini and deploy Salesforce on Google Cloud.

This will allow customers to use data bi-directionally from Google BigQuery, and Salesforce via zero copy technology. Another key point from the partnership is that Salesforce Service Cloud will become more firmly integrated with Google Customer Engagement Suite, enabling enhanced AI-enabled contact center capabilities. Salesforce’s Agentforce, Data Cloud, and Customer 360 Apps will run on Google Cloud infrastructure, and that too, with access to new regions and simplified procurement through the Google Cloud Marketplace.

“Salesforce’s selection of Google Cloud as a major infrastructure provider means enterprise customers can now deploy some of their most critical applications on our highly secure, AI-optimized infrastructure — with minimal friction. Our mutual customers have asked us to be able to work more seamlessly across Salesforce and Google Cloud, and this expanded partnership will help them accelerate their AI transformations with agentic AI, state-of-the-art AI models, data analytics, and more.”

-Thomas Kurian, CEO of Google Cloud.
