Homegrown firm Bharti Airtel has partnered with New York-based telecom solutions giant Verizon Wireless to launch a video conferencing platform, Airtel BlueJeans.
Verizon acquired Mountain View, California-based cloud video conferencing solutions provider BlueJeans in April this year. By partnering with Airtel, Verizon looks to tap into the growing video conferencing market in India, as per a statement.

BlueJeans, which will be integrated with Airtel’s network and its data centres, will offer enterprise-grade video conferencing solutions for businesses in India, the statement said. An integrated audio solution will also be rolled out to provide customers with dial-in options to join meetings, it added.
Businesses can access Airtel BlueJeans for free the first three months, after which the service will be offered at a “very competitive” price, TechCrunch reported, citing Airtel CEO Gopal Vittal.
