Airtel loops in Google Cloud and Cisco to launch ‘Airtel Office Internet’

Airtel Office Internet brings together high-speed data connectivity, conferencing and business productivity tools as a unified solution with one plan and one bill, said the company.

According to Ajay Chitkara, Director & CEO – Airtel Business, “The pandemic has accelerated the digital transformation journeys of businesses of all sizes. Emerging businesses are looking for trusted partners to help them in their journeys by eliminating the complexity of managing multiple relationships.

"Airtel Office Internet is yet another innovation from Airtel in this direction. It brings together Airtel’s network and world-class partner ecosystem to bring to market tailor-made solutions for India’s unique needs.”

Bikram Singh Bedi, Managing Director at Google Cloud India, said, “Telecommunications firms are increasingly differentiating by offering a wide range of tools that are helping Indian businesses accelerate their digital transformation with the cloud. The combination of Google Workspace’s collaboration and productivity tools combined with Airtel’s robust pan-India connectivity solutions will be a great growth enabler for small businesses in India.”

Daisy Chittilapilly, President, Cisco India & SAARC, said: "As the threat landscape grows exponentially, cybersecurity becomes an urgent challenge for any business, regardless of size. This is particularly true for small businesses, given that they typically operate with limited resources and investments. Our partnership with Airtel is built on our joint vision of enabling enterprise-grade security for small businesses, grounded in AI and automation, so they can focus on areas that will have the biggest impact on their recovery and growth."
