â Eric Jackson (@ericjackson) August 19, 2014. As we now know, investing in Google in 2004 wasn't such a bad idea in the longterm. Google now generates more than $50 billion a year in revenue and it now has a market cap of about $400 billion, making it one of the most valuable public companies in the world.
Google was co-founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were doing their PhD at Stanford University; it was incorporated as a privately held company on September 7, 1998. Google made the initial public offering on August 19, 2004, and raised $1.67 billion, making it worth $23 billion.
