Barbie’s online and her data is in the cloud.
Mattel’s partnership with Google Cloud is resulting in data-driven product innovation, insight, and personalized engagement with its fanbase, the companies say. The announcement was made at Cloud Next ’25, scheduled April 9-11.
“With Google Cloud, we’ve unleashed the power of our customer data, transforming millions of interactions — from social media buzz to direct customer feedback — into actionable insights and forging greater connections with our fans,” says Joseph Vinhais, SVP of Quality Safety & Sustainability, Mattel.
The collaboration between the companies has allowed Mattel to analyze customer feedback across multiple channels, including social media, reviews, and direct communication. The company has access to swift insight, allowing it to make data-driven decision-making faster than before. Now, Mattel can serve distinct consumer groups, from gift purchasers to kidults, fostering brand loyalty. The company uses this data to enhance the Barbie DreamHouse and Fisher-Price Glow and Grow Kick & Play Piano Gym, among other products.
“Mattel’s dedication to fostering connections with its global audience is inspiring. By harnessing the power of Google Cloud’s advanced analytics and AI capabilities, Mattel is not just listening to its customers; it’s also anticipating their needs, translating feedback into tangible product enhancements and personalized experiences,” says Matt Renner, President, Global Revenue, Google Cloud. Google Cloud is used in more than 200 countries and territories.
