Montreal tech community could benefit from Google expansion | Montreal Gazette Blogs: Nicolas Darveau-Garneau says he thinks of his job to be more of that of head of a startup, then the director of a regional office of a major conglomerate.
That’s probably a good sign for Montreal’s tech community.
Google’s Montreal office is expanding and Darveau-Garneau is managing that expansion. Long a support office with a few busy engineers, Google Montreal is finally branching out into the business community.
Google plans to hire product consultants and account managers that will work in sales both to push Quebec businesses on Google products, but also just to help them maximize their online presence. Garneau said his first challenge is to convince businesses owners the worth of dedicating some time to creating an online presence, something most small businesses are still reluctant to do.
