Join Google Cloud and Grid Dynamics for an exclusive executive event focused on ensuring agentic commerce isn’t just “smart,” but also strictly aligned with corporate profitability goals. https://bit.ly/4sXMgqz Intent friction is a problem many enterprises currently face: where customers know what they need, but the platform’s inability to understand complex, contextual queries or execute back-end logic leads to drop-off. In this workshop, we will explore how this and other search and CX issues are addressed by combining Vertex AI Search for Commerce with Gemini Enterprise for Customer Experience for a high-precision discovery layer grounded in retail-specific intent. Add Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) to handle the “heavy lifting” of transactional execution, such as checking real-time inventory, applying loyalty pricing, and completing checkouts – within a single conversational interface.
