Introduction

Companies are increasingly deploying Google Workspace to modernize their businesses and meet the emerging challenges in their markets. It enables teams to collaborate across different departments, empowers employees to rethink the way they work and breaks down silos.

According to a Gartner survey, the hybrid blend of at-home and in-office work will become the norm for many businesses even after COVID-19 vaccine is widely adopted.

“Airbus has spent the past year thinking about what it actually means to return to work and we’re looking to support greater flexibility with Google Workspace in a leading role. In 2020, we held 5.6M Google Meet sessions and we now have more than 70,000 shared Drives where people collaborate. Google Workspace has changed the way people work at Airbus and that will continue as the solution empowers the hybrid work reality.”
– Andrew Plunkett, Airbus Vice President Digital Workplace
