For the stock market world, the future is videoconferencing, more than aeronautics. The dazzling success of the Zoom service, which has multiplied its number of users by 30 in a few weeks, is a striking example. The company now weighs more than American Airlines, Air France or Delta.

It's incredible Axel de Tarlé. Zoom, the videoconferencing service, is now worth more on the stock market than the seven largest airlines combined. Does this mean that, for scholarship recipients, videoconferencing has more future than aviation? 

This is exactly it. Zoom is worth $ 48 billion on the stock market. It's more than American Airlines, Delta, British Airways, Lufthansa, Air France, SouthWest and United, all combined. Zoom, maybe it should be remembered, it is this company, unknown before the coronavirus epidemic, which has now become an expression: "We are zooming in". That means: we have a meeting for several by Internet, by videoconference, whether it is to work, or with friends, family, to celebrate a birthday from a distance, to have an aperitif. 

For now, let's be honest, it works, but we are walking a little on the feet. And then the connection is not always very good. Except that indeed, we are only at the beginning. Technology will improve. You know that 5G makes hologram communications possible. In other words, your grandmother will be sitting next to you on the sofa. And then, of course, companies are pushing these video conferences for ecological and economic reasons.

With containment, Zoom saw its number of daily users multiplied by 30. Today there are more than 300 million "zoomers" in the world. 

Except that Axel, I imagine that Google, Facebook and others, will not long leave Zoom alone in this videoconferencing market. 

And you can imagine. Google immediately reacted by making its own video conferencing service, "Google Meet", free. A service that he is now pushing hard, with his billion Gmail subscribers. 

So, yes, Google should quickly stifle the little Zoom, or else it will be bought out. This becomes frankly problematic in terms of competition. Because really, we have the impression now that the economy has become a game, where, whatever happens, "in the end, Google wins".
