Google Acquisitions

Google Acquisitions

As of March 2008, Google's largest acquisition was the purchase of DoubleClick, an online advertising company, for US $3.1 billion. Because of the size of the acquisition, United States antitrust regulators took nearly a year to investigate the deal and clear it for approval. The majority of the companies acquired by Google are based in the United States. A large percentage of these companies are based in or around the San Francisco Bay Area.
