GoliveMobile has announced that it has opened new offices in the countries of the India and the Philippines, part of its strategy to expand in Asia. Though carrying only a handful of employees for both new business hubs (30 for Manila and 50 for Bangalore), this is a the first step in their expansion strategy, perhaps preparing for a broader area of scope as far as providing mobile content services.

These new offices will initially serve as dual regional hubs for operations based in Asia. This will likewise mean additional job opportunities for qualified individuals. The company has been aggressively recruiting in both markets for the past year, working with established head hunters in local markets to find top talent.
