Treasure Hunt! Show Off Your Gemini Gems 💎

L&C Employees — We know you’ve been busy “polishing” your Gemini Gem workflows and bots. Now, it’s time to bring those hidden gems to the surface by entering them in the L&C Gemini Gems Showcase.

January 21, 2026

If you have developed a clever prompt, a custom assistant, or a time-saving workflow using Gemini Gems, we want to see it!  The AI Advisory group is sponsoring a Gemini Gems Showcase to give you a chance to share your work, help your colleagues, and contribute to our community’s growing expertise in GenAI.

Sharing your “Gem” is more than an opportunity to show off your expertise! It’s also an easy way to share solutions or an approach that can make work a bit easier for your colleagues. 

You’ll also have a chance to be featured in AI Advisory Group GenAI library and win one of our 2026 Gem Awards!

How to get involved

The submission process is simple. Whether you plan to join us in person or participate remotely, please take a few minutes to submit your Gem. Multiple submissions are welcome!
