Google has announced that it is opening its first-ever Africa product development hub in Nairobi. The hub is part of Google’s Ksh115.5 billion investment on the continent over the next five years.

In a statement on Tuesday, Google said that the hub will offer jobs to visionary engineers, product managers, UX designers and researchers to lay the foundation for significant growth in the coming years.

“Google’s mission in Africa is to make the Internet helpful to Africans and partner with African governments, policymakers, educators, entrepreneurs and businesses to shape the next wave of innovation in Africa,” Google vice president for products Suzanne Frey said.

“The potential for Africa to become a leading digital economy is right on the horizon and Google is committed to accelerating Africa’s digital transformation through human capital and enabling African-led solutions to African and global problems through better products,” Google managing director for Africa Nitin Gajria said.

The move by Google to open a new hub in Nairobi follows similar moves by Microsoft and Meta (formerly Facebook) opening offices in the country.
