Google has come a long way from its days as an internet search engine operating out of a Silicon Valley garage.

Today, Google is the centerpiece of the Alphabet parent company, a collection of independent companies that generated $137 billion in revenue in 2018. This business empire dominates industries such as online advertising, video streaming, and smartphone software, and it includes some of the leading efforts in cutting-edge technology like self-driving cars, deep learning, and health tech.
