Opened in April 2012, Campus London, Googles East London 'startup hub' was something of a new departure for Google. It was taking out a ten year lease of a building which would be populated by co-working spaces, hackers and startups that Google had nothing to do with and Google would not have a stake it in. In part it might be construed to have been a political move. The search giant was under pressure from the UK government to show it was prepared to back its efforts to drive technology entrepreneurialism. But funding one building - no where near as big as it's usually vast offices - is effectively spare change to Google, and 20 months on it's released data assessing whether Campus was a 'success' or not.
