Cohere, an AI technology company specializing in large language models, has opened a new office in New York City's Meatpacking District to better serve its diverse customer base and tap into the city's rich talent pool. This expansion is part of the company's strategy to build its presence in key innovation hubs, with existing offices in Toronto, San Francisco, and a research center in London. The New York office, which employs around 30 people in various roles such as engineering, operations, sales, and marketing, aims to connect directly with customers and partners in sectors like financial services, technology, retail, and the public sector. U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer praised the move, highlighting New York's role in leading American AI innovation.
