Everything — including Oracle — is bigger in China

From anyone else it might be called bragging, but this is Oracle. Oracle will buy 21 firms to act as subsidiaries in the country, declared Wang Chunwen, general manager of Oracle’s Enterprise Management Software Service in China. Oracle currently has five subsidiaries in China.

Wang stated that China has become the fastest growing market for Oracle’s global business, with the small- and mid-sized enterprise markets accounting for 99 percent of China’s total enterprises, 50 percent of China’s GDP and 75 percent of job opportunities.

Oracle’s 2006 fiscal year report shows that the company’s management software service increased by 80 percent over the previous year.
