HSBC downgrades Bloom Energy after significant rally
Investing.com -- Google plans to invest 5 billion euros ($5.82 billion) in Belgium over the next two years to expand its data center operations, the company announced Wednesday.
The capital injection will scale up Google’s existing facility in St. Ghislain and add 300 full-time jobs to its current workforce of approximately 600 full-time and contract positions.
The investment aims to strengthen Google’s artificial intelligence capabilities and enhance its capacity to meet growing demand for Google Cloud services.
The expanded infrastructure will also support other Google products including Search, Maps and Workspace.
"With today’s announcement, Google is deepening its roots in Belgium, extending our investments in the country and creating new avenues for AI-driven transformation," the company said in its statement.
This move represents the latest large-scale investment from a U.S. technology company expanding data center infrastructure across Europe.
