Hangouts Meet: 100,000 people in the business can see the meeting online

What’s new: For important meetings, businesses may require information to be communicated to many people, such as training sessions for all officers and employees. Now G Suite Enterprise edition users can live stream* its meeting to ensure these requirements.

*Live stream can be understood as using a webcam to transmit audio and video images directly to users.

Meeting organizers using G Suite enterprise can enable live streaming for their meetings in Calendar and invite others to join.

With a stream URL link, a business can invite up to 100,00 users* to watch an online meeting. (These people must use the same domain as the meeting organizer). They are accessible from the web or mobile devices. Soon, users will also be able to watch live streams on hardware Hangouts Meet devices. When everything is ready, those invited to the meeting can start a live stream for others to watch

The live stream feature at the meeting can be managed by sub-organizations (Organization Unit) from the Admin console.

To do this, please visit Admin console > Apps > G Suite > Google Hangouts > Meet settings. Then turn on the feature “Let people stream their meetings”. This feature will default to "ON" mode (already enabled).
