Yes, Partner Summit is an in-person, multiday partner program held alongside Next designed to inspire, educate, and connect partners across the ecosystem. Partner Summit programming begins on Tuesday, April 21, 2026, (one day before general Next programming) and runs through Friday, April 24, 2026.

As a Partner Summit at Next attendee, you can expect to:

• Accelerate your business
  Align on joint business goals, learn about new programmatic and incentive opportunities, dive deep into competitive insights, and more in our Partner Summit breakout sessions and lightning talks.
• Build new connections
  Network with other partners and Googlers as you explore the activities and perks located in our exclusive Partner Lounge.
• Get a look at what’s next
  Go behind the scenes with Google Cloud leadership at the dedicated partner keynote to learn about where cloud is headed – and how our partners are central to our mission.
• Make the most of your business
  Get personalized advice from Google Cloud team members on incentives, certifications, co-marketing, and more at our Meet the Experts booths.

Individuals from all Google Cloud Partner- or Premier-level organizations are invited to attend Partner Summit, and will get access to Partner Summit automatically when they register for Next ’26 – no extra sign-up needed. Partners will be able to move freely between both Partner Summit and general Next programming sessions and spaces on-site.

Not interested in the Partner Summit? No problem. Attendance is not required, and you can simply skip those sessions and experiences on-site.

No, Member-level partner organizations are not eligible to attend Partner Summit, due to the nature of the programming. Only individuals from a Partner- or Premier-level organization may register to attend Partner Summit. Content and programming is primarily designed with an executive, sales, marketing, and alliance/partnership audience in mind.

There won’t be a Partner Summit-wide reception at Next ’26. Partners will be able to connect with peers and Google Cloud leaders across the Partner Summit programming events, and we invite all partners to join us at the Next ’26 Next at Night party on Thursday evening.

No, there will be no public call for papers for Partner Summit content.
