Google
Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG and LSE: GGEA) is an American public corporation,
specializing in Internet search and online advertising. It's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Google is now widely recognized as the world's largest
search engine -- an easy-to-use free service that usually returns
relevant results in a fraction of a second.
The first funding for Google as a company was secured in the form of a USD100,000 contribution from Andy Bechtolsheim, co-founder of Sun Microsystems, given to a corporation which did not yet exist.[24]
Around six months later, a much larger round of funding was announced,
with the major investors being rival venture capital firms Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and Sequoia Capital.
