Google’s Birthday Doodle; Celebrates by Hosting 3,000 Entrepreneurs in 28 Cities

Google's 14th Birthday was celebrated this Thursday with a doodle of a chocolate cake and candles. Founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Google is the second most valuable brand in the world, behind only Apple, according to BrandZ.

Although Google was incorporated on September 4, 1998, but the company chose to change its birthdate to September 27, to coincide with a record of the number of pages the search engine indexed in 2005.

Earlier this week, Google posted on its company blog:

To celebrate both our birthday and the spirit of entrepreneurship that's helped get us where we are today, we are hosting our first annual Google for Entrepreneurs Week, which will bring together more than 3,000 entrepreneurs and Googlers around the world.

Google for Entrepreneurs Week runs from September 23-29, 2012, held in 28 cities in 13 countries. Go to the website for more info.

Lastly, here's a video of Google's birthday doodles throughout the years:
