Singapore public sector to deploy Gemini on GDC air-gapped

Singapore public sector agencies including CSIT, GovTech Singapore and HTX will be the first in Asia and among the first worldwide to gain access to Gemini on GDC.

With this technology, they can accelerate the development and deployment of agentic AI while keeping highly sensitive data within their on-premises data centers fully disconnected from the public Internet. It opens up entirely new use cases for government agencies, helping them build AI agents with leading multimodal reasoning and “working memory” capabilities to assist with national security, public safety, policy modeling and more.

Loh Chee Kin, Deputy Chief Executive, Centre for Strategic Infocomm Technologies, said: “As a key GDC collaboration partner in shaping the GDC air-gapped product roadmap and validating the deployment solutions, we’re delighted that this pioneering role has helped us grow our cutting-edge capabilities and establish a proven deployment blueprint that will benefit other agencies with similar requirements. We’re excited about the availability of Gemini on GDC, and we look forward to building on our partnership to develop and deploy agentic AI applications for our national security mission.”

Ang Chee Wee, Chief AI Officer, Home Team Science and Technology Agency, said: “HTX is scaling our development of innovative AI solutions for the Home Team. GDC’s secure, managed platform is one of the key solutions HTX is leveraging to address evolving challenges in the realm of public safety without compromising our strict data residency and compliance requirements. This will include fine-tuning Gemini models on GDC for Home Team-specific use cases.”
