An important turning point in Google's development ambitions in India has been reached with the official opening of its new campus, Ananta, in Mahadevapura, Bengaluru. Ananta, one of Google's largest worldwide offices, is 1.6 million square feet in size and can house more than 5000 workers. This action demonstrates Google's dedication to Indian market where it now has 10,000 employees making it one of the countries with the largest workforces outside of the US.
The construction of Ananta was a collaborative effort with Bagmane Tech Park taking six years to build and just 11 months for customization specifically for Google. Name Ananta which means infinite or limitless in Sanskrit reflects boundless potential that Google sees in leveraging technology to improve lives. Campus is designed to foster collaboration and innovation featuring a unique city grid layout that organizes workspaces into neighborhoods along with a central gathering space known as Sabha. This amphitheater style area is intended for community engagement and informal collaboration among employees.
Sustainability is a key focus of Ananta's design. The campus incorporates one of India's largest installations of smart electro-chromic glass to reduce energy consumption alongside systems for 100% wastewater recycling and rainwater harvesting. Additionally grounds are inspired by the reputation of Bengaluru as "Garden City" featuring extensive landscaping walking paths and a mini forest named Aranya which serves as both a recreational area and a noise barrier from nearby traffic.
Google's Country Manager for India, Preeti Lobana highlighted the significance of this new facility in light of India's growing influence in the global tech ecosystem. She pointed out that thriving startup landscape and robust digital infrastructure in India are critical components of country's technological advancement. Over the past two decades Google has played an instrumental role in Indian digital transformation through various AI-driven initiatives aimed at addressing local challenges such as flood forecasting and early tuberculosis detection.
Google is demonstrating its long-term commitment to developing cutting-edge solutions specifically for Indian customers while simultaneously expanding its worldwide services by continuing to invest in artificial intelligence cloud computing and digital infrastructure through Ananta. In addition to being a physical expansion the opening of Ananta supports objective of creating products that appeal to a wide range of global markets by Google. Ananta is positioned to be a center for technological innovation that helps India and the larger global society because of its emphasis on accessibility and employee well-being.
