Only the event creators can create breakout rooms while anyone with a Google account can be a participant. However, breakout rooms are currently accessible on the desktop version of Google Meet. The breakout rooms on the Google Meet are now available to Enterprise for Education customers. It will roll out to additional Google Workspace editions later this year. Eligible buyers will also receive a three-month trial of Google AI Pro which includes access to Gemini features, NotebookLM, Flow and 5TB of cloud storage.
