Twenty-five years ago, a shared vision blossomed in a dorm room at Stanford University. Sergey Brin and Larry Page aspired to revolutionize the World Wide Web's accessibility. Their relentless work and innovative thinking led to the prototype of a superior search engine. As the project flourished, Google's inaugural office was established in a rented garage, marking the official founding of Google Inc. on September 27, 1998.
