Amid a series of event cancelations, including Cloud Next 2020 conference, due to coronavirus, Google has decided to Create Advanced G Suite Conference Highlights for free as a solution to continue the yearly event somewhat. As the whole tech industry is experiencing a blow because of the limit of travel, gatherings, and even manufacturing, Google is still concerned about giving help to improve communications and functions of different businesses affected.
Google has just solved a huge chunk of the problem
Google has just announced it will hold Hangouts Meet-- is a video-conferencing highlights tool accessible to everyone using G Suite for both professional and educational purposes. There is no need for attendees to travel to witness the event.
Through this software, it helps limit the amount of physical interaction in hopes of preventing the spread of the coronavirus. Everyone is advised to be cautious with every interaction they make, and it was Google's initiative to take this to a whole new level by letting everyone have access to a platform that can be used in teaching and conferences.
The risk of physical interaction
As of now, Covid-19 has not been cured. So there is a chance you will get the virus through physical interaction from one person to another. In this case, it is ideal to limit physical interactions. However, in schools and the workplace, physical contact is quite difficult to avoid. Usually, it includes handshakes, hugs, and other forms of physical contact.
What a free Advanced G Suite would mean for the workplace
Unnecessary meetings could be avoided, and a complete or partial work-at-home could be possible for some industries since they can still be monitored, given instructions, and also contacted through the Advanced G Suite being free for everyone to use. Instructions and conferences can now be given through this platform instead of having to meet up in person and risk the possibility of infection. Although this may seem like quite a drastic measure, it is always better to be safe than sorry when it comes to the coronavirus or Covid-19.
The availability of this free period will help people during dark times
Now that the virus is spreading and scientists are still trying to find a solid way to combat this infection, humanity needs all the help it can get from the medical field all the way to the technology field. The free usage of the Advanced G Suite is available until July 1, which means that until progress has been made, there is an option for companies and schools to use for them to avoid the spread of this virus.
The tech industry has been significantly affected, but despite all mayhem around, Google is offering a solution to limit a huge chunk of interactions in the workplace and educational field with the free use of their Advanced G Suite to help decrease the infection rate of the coronavirus.
