US tech firm Oath plans to double its global users to 2 billion by 2020, with the Dublin-based European headquarters set to play a significant part in its international expansion. The Irish office, which is located at North Wall Quay, currently employs more than 350 people and has room for further expansion. Oath was formed last year from the combination of AOL and Yahoo, comprising 50 brands including HuffPost, Yahoo Mail, TechCrunch, AOL.com, Tumblr, Flurry and Yahoo Gemini. “The name itself creates conversation – where did it come from, what does it mean?” said Patrick Scully, managing director and vice president of Oath EMEA. He said Dublin would play a major part in building brands and growing the business both organically and through new partnerships.
