Shannon Sullivan
Defense Director, Google Public Sector
Shannon Sullivan is especially excited about his team’s partnership with the Army, which helped the service deploy a cloud-first collaboration solution with Google Workspace. It’s designed to improve upon more traditional technologies with unparalleled security and versatility. In fact, in just two weeks, Sullivan’s team onboarded 160,000 soldiers.
“We want to bring the magic of Google to help the U.S. government,” Sullivan said. “Having a choice in cloud vendors helps to accelerate the U.S. government’s digital transformation, unlocks innovation and helps the government control cost.”
Why Watch
Sullivan’s team is focused on helping federal agencies modernize their technology. Having choice in cloud vendors helps unleash innovation, save on costs and better the government’s security posture, he said.
“Shannon has been a champion for federal technologists as Google has doubled down on its investment in public sector in recent years,” said Tricia Davis-Muffett, head of global public sector marketing at Google Cloud. “This is evidenced by our recent achievements in partnering with the U.S. Army and achieving the Department of Defense Impact Level 5 provisional authorization to support Google Public Sector’s ongoing commitment to the industry.”
