Globant, a firm that was founded in the digital age and is dedicated to redefining businesses through cutting-edge technology, today announced an expansion of its global partnership with Google Cloud, which includes the opening of a new Google Cloud Studio. The new business unit will be dedicated to assisting customers in adopting and using the revolutionary advantages of Google Cloud across Globant's numerous sectors.

Globant is taking action to counter the rising trend in demand for Google Cloud goods and services. Globant is also committing to investing in Google Cloud capabilities and educating 1,500 Google-certified engineers as part of our efforts to equip businesses with the newest cloud technology.

"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."

"With its experienced team of Google Cloud-certified engineers around the world, specializations across industries, and dedication to mastering the latest technologies and trends, Globant has been a strong collaborator with Google Cloud for more than 15 years," said Anil Jain, Global Managing Director, Media & Entertainment Industry at Google Cloud. "With this next step in our partnership, organizations will have the ability to maximize the many benefits of Google Cloud's platform and tools, helping them to stay competitive and lead their industries in a rapidly-changing business landscape."

As a result of the strengthened alliance, Globant and Google Cloud will additionally cooperate to:

Deep dive into AI by assisting clients and their customers to utilise Google Cloud's cutting-edge ML and AI tools and apps to unleash automation and commercial value in deep learning, responsible AI/ML, infrastructure, data science, and other areas.

Utilize Globant's existing expertise in telecom, media & entertainment, gaming, professional services, financial services, retail, healthcare & life sciences, airlines, hospitality & leisure, retail, and manufacturing to concentrate on creative client solutions across a variety of industries. These solutions will be based on domain-specific knowledge and know-how.

Give top priority to solutions for corporate modernization, such as platform modernization for the cloud, databases, data lakes, modernised apps, data analytics, and security.

Globant and Google established their relationship more than 16 years ago. Through this partnership, the companies have been able to create synergies between their respective areas of expertise, unlocking significant strategic value for multiple joint clients, such as TelevisaUnivision: "Globant helped us to quickly ramp up a large team in a few months to build out our direct-to-consumer platform based on Google Cloud. The Globant team's talent and agility were directly responsible for the on-time delivery of our platform and its successful implementation at scale," said Michael Cerdá, Executive Vice President of Streaming Product & Engineering at TelevisaUnivision.
