This Monday the technology company Google inaugurated its new headquarters in El Salvador, with the attendance of President Nayib Bukele, Eduardo López, president of Google Cloud for Latin America and other personalities.
With the opening of these headquarters, Google will provide support for the development of the Central American nation. Among the beneficiaries are Salvadoran entrepreneurial women, but the focus is also on public and private institutions with the purpose of promoting business and modernizing education and health.
Bukele, who presided over the inauguration, said: “This day, we are inaugurating the Google offices in El Salvador, let’s say the most important physical presence, or Google’s base of operations in El Salvador.”
