New Delhi: Tech giant google seems to be working towards a new strategy to further improve its services and also explore new avenues in the new year 2025.
In this regard Google CEO Sundar Pichai and other top company executives held a strategy meeting and shared their thoughts with the company employees.
Sundar Pichai told employees that the new year will be critical for Google.
“I think 2025 will be critical. I think it’s really important we internalize the urgency of this moment and need to move faster as a company” said Pichai according to a report by CNBC.
“These are disruptive moments. In 2025 we need to be relentlessly focused on unlocking the benefits of this technology and solve real user problems” said the CEO as he stressed that that the stakes are high.
Pichai told Google employees that building big and new business is a top priority. Google sees the Gemini app as its next one to reach half a billion users.
“With the Gemini app there is strong momentum particularly over the last few months. But we have some work to do in 2025 to close the gap and establish a leadership position there as well” said Pichai adding that “scaling Gemini on the consumer side will be our biggest focus next year.”
Google is facing a host of antitrust cases across the world with the biggest one in the US. Recently Japan also said that it would probe Google while the United Kingdom has also raised some objections.
“It comes with our size and success. It’s part of a broader trend where tech is now impacting society at scale. So more than ever through this moment we have to make sure we don’t get distracted” said Pichai while addressing Google employees as he asserted that it’s not lost on him the kind of scrutiny Google is facing.
The meeting was attended by employees in person as well as virtually said the report.
