Google has announced that it will be opening an office in Pune. These teams will help in building advanced enterprise cloud technologies in collaboration with global engineering teams, provide real-time technical advice, and deliver product and implementation expertise that customers turn to Google Cloud for as their trusted partner in their digital transformation journey.
India has long been a hub for technology and innovation, and the strong talent pool here makes it a strategic location for Google Cloud to invest in the cloud infrastructure, grow operations and expand the workforce to support Google’s growing customer base.

And in October 2021, Google Cloud committed to training more than 40 million new people globally on Google Cloud skills as part of our Cloud Skills Boost program which many in India continue to take advantage of.
“Today, I’m pleased to share that Google is opening an office in Pune, and the first Googlers in the space will be in our Cloud Product Engineering, Technical Support, and Global Delivery Centre organisations,” added Bhansali.
