Google is considering buying Israeli mobile satellite navigation start-up Waze, which may lead to a bidding war with Facebook, Bloomberg news reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
Waze is seeking more than US$1 billion and is fielding expressions of interest from multiple parties, Bloomberg cited a source as saying.
Maps and navigation services have become a key asset for technology companies as consumers increasingly adopt smartphones and other mobile devices.
