Baidu plans to double its footprint in Silicon Valley with a second research and development facility, seeking to gain an edge in artificial intelligence technology.
China’s largest search engine provider will add capacity for 150 employees, the company said in a statement. Baidu has about 200 people at its existing site in Sunnyvale, California.
The two offices will be a mile apart.
“It is becoming increasingly important in Baidu’s global strategy as a base for attracting world-class talent,” the company said in the statement.
