Reliance Jio Launches 4G Service For Employee

The launch event was attended by nearly 35,000 Reliance Group employees and around 80,000 were tuned in to the event via video links from 1,000-plus locations across the country.

The event was also attended by all members of the Ambani family, including Mukesh Ambani’s wife Nita Ambani, mother Kokilaben Ambani, sons Akash and Anant and daughter Isha. Mukesh’s younger brother, Anil Ambani.

“India is ranked around 150 in the internet and mobile broadband penetration out of 230 countries. Jio is conceived to change this and 1.3 billion Indians cannot be left behind as the world enters a new era. It is this opportunity to transform the lives of our 1.3 billion Indians that motivated Reliance to enter this space,” Mukesh Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director of Reliance Industries, said while addressing the gathering.

The company is launching the services first for all Reliance Group employees in a bid to make optimal use of human resources to ensure that the last and the slightest wrinkle will be smoothed out before it launches its all-India services.

The latest entrant to the telecom services space had earlier said it will bring products such as Jio Play which will allow users to watch HD TV anytime, anywhere, on any device.
