{"slug": "google-expands-gemini-for-business-with-shareable-projects", "title": "Google expands Gemini for Business with shareable Projects", "summary": "Google is rolling out shareable Projects to Gemini for Business, allowing teams to collaborate within dedicated folders that contain individual chats and uploaded files. The feature enables users to assign colors, define system instructions, and invite collaborators to work in the same workspace, mirroring group chat patterns seen in Microsoft Copilot. Google is also introducing workflow agents with a reworked builder for automated, scheduled tasks across Gmail, Drive, Calendar, and third-party tools, narrowing the feature gap between the Business and Enterprise tiers.", "body_md": "Google is continuing to push Gemini for Business deeper into team workflows, with several updates moving from internal development toward broader rollout. The most notable change centers on Projects, a feature that already exists in Gemini Enterprise but is being adapted for the Business tier, with a structure distinct from that of consumer Gemini.\n\nThese are true container projects where individual chats live inside dedicated folders, alongside uploaded files that can be managed within the same project, a setup that turns each project into a multi-surface workspace rather than a single chat thread.\n\nCustomization extends beyond organization. Users can assign a color to each project, define system instructions that apply across every chat inside it, and invite collaborators to work in the same workspace. That last point is where things get interesting: the collaboration model lets multiple people access and respond inside the same chat, mirroring the [group chat](https://www.testingcatalog.com/microsoft-tests-group-conversations-on-copilot/) pattern Microsoft introduced in Copilot but framed around business team contexts. This particular implementation looks unlikely to make its way to the consumer Gemini app, though further expansion across Business seats appears probable.\n\nIn parallel, Google is bringing workflow agents to Gemini for Business, building on the agent platform already available in the Enterprise edition. A reworked builder lets users configure automated, scheduled tasks that call connectors across the Google suite and beyond, covering Gmail, Drive, Calendar, and various third-party tools.\n\nAvailability follows the usual staged pattern, with some accounts already seeing these capabilities while others wait their turn. The overall trajectory positions Gemini for Business as a closer counterpart to Enterprise, narrowing the feature gap between the two tiers while keeping shared workspaces and agent orchestration as the central pitches for paying teams. Pairing project-level memory with scheduled agents also lines [Google](https://www.testingcatalog.com/tag/gemini/) up against the always-on assistants taking shape across Microsoft, Anthropic, and OpenAI, where the competitive question is increasingly which platform can run reliable, multi-step work on behalf of a whole team rather than a single user.", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/google-expands-gemini-for-business-with-shareable-projects", "canonical_source": "https://www.testingcatalog.com/google-expands-gemini-for-business-with-shareable-projects/", "published_at": "2026-05-27 15:44:58+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-05-30 17:07:45.345466+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "ai-products", "ai-tools", "ai-agents", "generative-ai"], "entities": ["Google", "Gemini for Business", "Gemini Enterprise", "Microsoft", "Copilot"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/google-expands-gemini-for-business-with-shareable-projects", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/google-expands-gemini-for-business-with-shareable-projects.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/google-expands-gemini-for-business-with-shareable-projects.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/google-expands-gemini-for-business-with-shareable-projects.jsonld"}}
