"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.

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.

In 2022, Globant and Google Cloud transformed their existing relationship into a dedicated partnership, which included the creation of co-designed customized Google Cloud training programs for Globant engineers, a Google University @Globant, a formal Google Cloud reseller program, and more. Globant is also one of Google Cloud's partners providing services outside of Google's corporate headquarters with nearshore and offshore delivery centers.
