Google to have largest campus outside of US in Hyderabad

[INDIAPOSITIVE]

Google is all set to have a massive campus in Hyderabad, the largest outside its US headquarters in Mountain View.

Speaking to the media on Thursday soon after kicking off the ground-up development of the building at Gachibowli with IT Minister K.T. Rama Rao and IT Principal Secretary Jayesh Ranjan, Country Head and Vice President of Google Sanjay Gupta said that the new campus could accommodate thousands of people over the next few years, as India and Google grow.

The new campus, spread over 7.3 acres, is in addition to the approximately 3 million sq.ft. built up area of Google offices across India.

“When we build campuses, we build them for the future. It is much larger, and much bigger than what we believe today we will have. But I think, we planned for the next 10 years,” Mr. Gupta said.

The new campus is a step towards the tech giant planning for future. As of now, Google has around 10 offices in Hyderabad, which is one of the tech giant’s largest employee bases.

Like Ratan Tata had said once " You are a fool if you are not into Gujarat". Now this applies to India. "You are a fool if you are not in India". Quite from old China rulled by dictator Xi. Come to a vibrant democracy India with generous youngsters.

Hard/impossible. China is irreplacible due to its extensive supply lines comprising of scores of manufacturer supplying 100s of components that go in a product.. In software moving supply lines is easy because it is very decentralized. A single highly complex application depends upon 1000s of libraries / frameworks / platforms coming from 1000s of developers from all over world.
