Google opened an office in Munich in october.

I visited my friend Philipp this week at his new office. To enter as a Visitor you have to sign a NDA – so I cannot tell you much.

Google’s Munich Office is their first engineering office in Germany following Aarhus, Dublin, Krakow, London, Lulea, Moskow, St. Petersburg, Trondheim and Zurich as 10th destination for research and development in Europe. Google already operates four offices for sales in Germany in Hamburg, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt and Berlin.

“Munich is a hotspot for many highly talented computer scientists and software engineers and hence an ideal location for us to innovate”, says Nelson Mattos, Vice President of Engineering at Google.

The Google Office is in the new building which is not finished in this satellite picture.
