October 23, 2008
MacroWorld Investor reports some news that almost certain to annoy Microsoft. You can read “UAE MoFT Adopts Google Solutions” here. MoFT means Ministry of Foreign Trade. UAE MoFT is the “governmental institution in the Gulf to formally adopt Google services in its daily operations.” The news story runs through the due diligence the UAE performed. To make a long story short, the GOOG continues to make headway in the enterprise market. The deal in UAE is bigger than the one for Google in the District of Columbia. UAE has more cash than DC too.
