A group is a chat where several people talk together. A channel lets a business share updates with the people it adds. Both are run by a business you own or manage, so you need a business account first. If you do not have one yet, the window says No businesses yet.

On a computer

Open Chats, select the three dots in the top bar and choose New group or New channel. The menu also has New business chat.
