Hyderabad Gets Asia’s 2nd Google Safety Centre

Over the past two decades, Hydeerabad transformed into an IT hub, giving tough competition to the likes of Bengaluru and Gurugram. Already, many IT giants like Amazon, Google, Facebook and Microsoft have their biggest campuses outside the US in Hyderabad.

Currently, the Telangana government is making all attempts to bring multi-national companies to the state. The IT ministry is working towards getting investments in a big scale. In the latest development, Google announced a Safety Engineering Center in Hyderabad. This centre will be the second one in the Asia Pacific region and the fifth one worldwide.
