Faster Internet via Google Cloud and Jio, says Google CEO Sundar Pichai

The partnership announced between Reliance Jio and Google Cloud on Thursday will help Indians connect faster to the Internet, assist small businesses and lay the foundation for the next phase of India’s digitisation, the chiefs of their parent companies said.

Google is taking its collaboration with Reliance further with a new 5G partnership, said Sundar Pichai, the chief executive of Alphabet that owns the Internet company. “It will help more than a billion Indians connect to a faster and better Internet, support businesses in their digital transformation, and help Jio build new services in sectors like health, education and more…,” he said.
