RIL is partnering with Google for the development of its Jio products. Google had announced years ago that it was working on a device that would incorporate eyeglasses with a computer called Google Glass, but the product was never made available for retail consumers.
At the event, Ambani said India’s first cloud-based video conferencing app JioMeet has seen 5 million downloads within days of launch.
Best of Express Premium
The company also announced launch of a mega streaming service called JioTV Plus, that is a content aggregator bringing Over The Top (OTT) platforms, TV channels, various apps, and services to its Jio set-top-box users.
