Alphabet Inc's Google has announced the establishment of its first Africa product development centre in Nairobi, Kenya, as it prepares to service the continent's expanding number of internet users. According to the California-based corporation, by the end of this decade, the continent will have 800 million internet users and one-third of the world's adolescent population, making it an appealing investment location.

In a joint blog post on Tuesday, Suzanne Frey, vice president for products, and Nitin Gajria, director of Google Africa, announced that Google is hiring engineers, product managers, user experience designers, and researchers to staff the new centre.

Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google, revealed last October at a Google for Africa event a proposal to contribute $1 billion over the next five years to promote Africa's digital development.
