Google to Set Up R&D Center in India

TMCnet Contributing Editor
 
Google (News - Alert) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the government of Andhra Pradesh to buy land in Hyderabad, India to build a Google facility to support the growing business and team expansion across operations.


 
The R&D center will occupy 20 acres and have the capacity to house 4,000 people. Google now employs 1,000 people at its leased premises in Hyderabad.


 
"India is an exciting market. Google products and services have received a very encouraging response and our offices have grown, thanks to the exceptional talent pool,” said Roy Gilbert, director- Online Sales and Operations, Google India, in a statement. “We have a long term commitment to the market and would like to make a difference by helping economic growth, bringing equality of access and using technology to help people in their daily lives. The MoU marks a step forward in further establishing our commitment to India.”
 
According to the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, such investments would help accelerate the country's economic growth besides providing gainful employment.

Google already has a R&D centre in India, located in Bangalore. The Hyderabad center is not an R&D centre, but caters to the ad business of Google.
