Google’s 2nd Headquarter in Buenos Aires
April 18, 2007 katebask
Google has opened a second headquarters in the business district (Puerto Madera) of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The new office in Argentina will act as the regional hub for the company, managing not only Latin America but also providing some services to the Spanish market. Before Buenos Aires, Google had headquarters in the US and Ireland. The company is expected to employ about 1,000 workers initially, and that number will move to 2,000 within the next few years. The Argentina government is excited about Google opening in their country because of the many jobs it will create for its citizens.
I think this article is important because it is proving how globalization and transnational companies are really growing. Google was started in Silicon Valley (my home) and now it has become so popular worldwide. I think it is great that it is giving other countries opportunities for employment and experience at this kind of technological company. Google is a search engine that should, and can be used by anyone to search anything that they might want to research. It deinitely should be available for all those who want it.
