Since the COVID-19 pandemic, conferencing platforms have become integral to Brazilian and American workplace culture. Terms like 'Zoom meeting' have become genericized in both countries. In Brazil, 'plataforma de conferência' is widely understood in professional contexts, while colloquially, people often reference specific platforms by name (Zoom, Teams, Google Meet).
