LinkedIn to open office in Toronto
LinkedIn, the popular online social networking service for business professionals, announced Monday it plans to open an office in Toronto as part of an international expansion plan that has seen the U.S. Internet company set up shop in Australia, Ireland, The Netherlands, India and the United Kingdom.
In moving to establish a footprint in Canada in the next few months, LinkedIn plans to hire a full team, including a Canadian country manager who will help oversee the company’s ambitions to increase its user base, grow its advertising business and further its subscription and recruiting businesses here.
