Abstract
We determine the structure of finitely generated groups which are quasi-isometric to symmetric spaces of noncompact type, allowing Euclidean de Rham factors If is a symmetric space of noncompact type with no Euclidean de Rham factor, and is a finitely generated group quasi-isometric to the product , then there is an exact sequence where contains a finite index copy of and is a uniform lattice in the isometry group of .
