SAN FRANCISCO – March 30, 2023 – Globant (NYSE: GLOB), a digitally native company focused on reinventing businesses through innovative technology solutions, today announced an expansion of its global collaboration with Google Cloud, which includes the creation of a new dedicated Google Cloud Studio.

“With over two decades of experience leveraging cutting-edge technologies, Globant is poised to help businesses stay ahead helping our clients succeed in the cloud-first era and achieve their digital transformation goals,” said Anupam Wahi, Managing Director of Google Cloud Studio at Globant. “With our 360-degree partnership with Google Cloud, Globant is committed to building out a dedicated team, led by Diego Briheuga, SVP of Technology, and Pablo Izcue, VP of Delivery, to respond to the increasing demand for Google Cloud products.”

As part of the expanded partnership, Globant, and Google Cloud will also work together to:
- Deep dive into AI by helping clients and their customers to leverage Google Cloud’s cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) tools and applications to unlock automation and business value in data science, AI infrastructure, responsible AI/ML, deep learning, and more.
