Spain is no longer the ugly duckling of the European technological ecosystem. Now has the opposite problem

by

Spain is ceasing to be the lagged technological ecosystem of Europe. The venture capital funds have invested just over 1 billion euros in 95 Spanish startups only in the first quarter of 2025. That represents an 184% increase on the sum collected in the first quarter of 2024, according to a long report published by Sifted. Why is it important. Spain is already the Fourth European country in technological financing this yearand its operations count is already close to Germany and France, with populations and income per capita notably higher. The context. This moment is not accidental, but arrives at the confluence of three factors that have created the perfect storm: The gold fever that is being AI worldwide. Government movements favorable to technology, such as generous fiscal disasters, Visas for Startups and Digital Nomads wave Sett. The appearance of the so -called ‘Mafia founders’: those that have experience in large Spanish companies such as Cabify, Glovo and Job & Talent. There is a turn here: recent rounds are larger and faster to run than before, according to Sifted in statements from sources in the sector consulted. In figures: 95 capital rounds. 910 million euros collected in what we have of a second quarter … … which is 90% more than in the second quarter of 2024. And the trend accelerates: more than half of all financing operations in Spain had at least one foreign investor. The accumulated in what we have of the year is more moderate if we attend to the figures of The referentwhich reach 1,774 million euros compared to 1910, depending on the methodology and type of operations included. In any case, the amount is higher than that of any year except 2021, 2022 and 2024. And we have not even reached the 2025 Ecuador. In the foreground. The big names are here: Between the lines. It is a change that goes beyond money: that there are Spanish founders contacting large investors is a double sign: Increase confidence in your own startups. They look for better conditions than those offered by Spanish funds. This contributes to the gap between British and Spanish equivalent rounds, to give an example, reduce. Yes, but. The background question is whether there really is a change in the trend or if we are simply seeing the consequence of large funds looking for destiny to your money. And that arrival of foreign funds also represents a dilemma for national risk capital: More legitimacy for the ecosystem. But also more competition. Spain has gone from being ignored by the great international funds that its own founders often prefer the conditions that foreign investors can offer. Spanish funds now face a competition that previously existed. The problem contrary to the one they had five years ago.

Within China they are clear what they think of the US technological veto

by

On May 29, the Office of Industry and Security of the US Department of Commerce gave the order to its national EDA software companies (Electronic Design Automation): They had to stop selling their products to China. The movement sought continue torpedoing its semiconductor industryone in which this software is key to continue advancing in advanced lithographic processes. China’s response is being clear: they see it as one of the greatest growth opportunities in its history. The context. The semiconductor industry is one in which the software is key to automating verification designs and processes. The margin of error is minimal, and there US companies such as Cadence, Synopsy and Siemens They have been key for years. These three companies dominate, in a combined way, 74% of the Global EDA market. The United States has informed these three companies to stop selling their software to Chinese groups, in an attempt to isolate it from an essential tool to continue advancing in chips manufacturing. Why is it important. The EDA software is the highway that each chip passes before entering production. The United States wants to stop the development of China in semiconductors, warned that the country has been preparing its greatest counterattack for years. At the beginning of September 2023 the Chinese government approved a item of 41,000 million dollars specifically intended for those companies that produce the equipment involved in the manufacture of integrated circuits. China has invested billions of dollars to have your lithography teamsit is clear that prefers to prioritize its technology to adapt the existingand is about to Achieve self -sufficiency in the development of your own 5 nm lithography. The performance by wafer is still low but something is clear: sooner or later, China will be the world leader in chips. The answer. Although the EDA industry stars three US companies, Chinese local companies have been moving forward in the development of this type of software. Specifically, there are three other big names playing in the country of Xi Jinping: Empyrean Technology, Primarius Technologies and Semitronix. After knowing the news and the new US export restrictions, the action of each of these three companies shot over 20% in the case of companies such as Primarius. Yang Lianfeng, president of that company, He counted In an interview that EDA national suppliers are seeing in this movement “the best development opportunity in history”. A national counteroffensive. Yang points out that China will not try to replicate the American EDA software. It will establish its own ecosystem, making this mosquadilla an opportunity to strengthen its self -sufficiency in national semiconductors. Young companies such as Industrial Univista Software Group, founded by former Synopsy and Cadence executives, They have made free disposal free tests of its Eda Univista Archer platform. This company, founded in 2020, serves more than 200 Chinese companies for integrated circuit design, and struggle to be the fourth name in the list of companies that aspire to lead in EDA. The limitations. China wants to answer these new restrictions as soon as possible, but the way will be complex. The race to jump to the two nanometers is crucial, one in which Nvidia, ASML and TSMC have been working for years. Companies like Xuanjie, the Chips Design Unit founded by Xiaomi, would have trouble jumping to this lithographic process. Their chips are manufactured by TSMC and the Xring 01 It is based on the TSMC three nanometers process. But the designs are their own and without access to American Eda tools, currently, it does not seem possible to break this barrier. The American veto hits right in the most critical bottleneck in the chain, but also pushes China to accelerate in its national substitute.

China has turned the technological geopolitics around with three plays. Western supremacy is being blurred

by

China has been working with a very clear technological roadmap for years. Priority has not been to compete on equal terms with the West, but to reduce its exposure to other decisions. The strategy is not born with Trump’s sanctions or with Vetos to Huawei. He came from before, but that promoted it. And it continues its course. Why is it important. Who dominates the subjects imposes the rhythm, who manufactures chips has industrial autonomy and who trains AI models with billions of users can export technology. China is already at the three levels. In detail: → Raw materials China reinforces its position in the first link: access to strategic resources. It controls about 90% of rare earth processing, essential to manufacture all types of technology. The Ministry of Commerce has limited exports from Galio and Germaniowhich impacts key sectors such as solar panels, electric vehicles or radars. The European and the American industry They are not managing to find substitutes in the short term. And China, in addition to maintaining a national reserve for internal use, is regulating its exploitation with geopolitical criteria. → Semiconductors. After the western vetoes, the State assured mass resources to its national industry. Huawei, blocked by the United States, presented A 7 Nm chip manufactured by SMICwithout access to lithography EUV. It is not toe technology … but enough, at least for the moment. There are already patents to continue miniaturizing. The State Semiconductor Fund created a year ago Broken 50 billion dollars, and although total self -sufficiency is still far, the system is already working without access to the outside. → Ia. The great Chinese technology develop their own foundational models. Each has a different sector orientation, but everyone lives under the umbrella of the new national regulatory framework, which requires algorithms registration and validation. The result: more and more Chinese startups dedicated to AI (with brutal results such as Deepseek), and prioritization for direct application in public services, industry and education. What has happened. The sanctions borntoEron as a brake on Chinese development, but they have ended up being an accelerator. China reinforced its R&D centers, reorganized its patent system and gave state coverage to the most exposed technological. And the Ministry of Science and Technology prioritized concrete sectors defining specific objectives for AI, supercomputing and automation. In perspective. As we have told in numerous articles, China does not seek to replicate the western model, but to design their own aspiring to be self -sufficient and at the same time global provider. At least where the legislation allows you to sell. Huawei post-saunciones is a perfect example. Large Chinese technology do not compete for market share in the United States or Europe, but to influence Africa, Central Asia and Latin America, where their systems are already penetrating (ZTE, Huawei, Beidou…). And access to your solutions will be accompanied by your conditions. That includes software, infrastructure, etc. Between the lines. The strategy follows a sequential logic: Ensure resources. Guarantee industrial capacity. Consolidate leadership in innovation. Each phase depends on the previous one and each advance has political coverage. And now what. The next step will be to consolidate the model: AI with national identity, own standards and gradual international expansion. All with government support.

There is a reason why the most successful technological ones are not limited to what they know: the ‘antilibrary’

by

Telefónica Perfect your telecommunications manuals. Huawei Build autonomous driving systems. Nokia dominated each protocol of mobile telephony when Apple redefined what should be a phone. They are opposed philosophies about the relationship between knowledge and power. The concept of ‘Antilibrary‘coined by Taleb – noticeable not acquired – is the secret of companies that not only want to register in the future, but to build it. Although ‘anti -librería’ or ‘anti -library’ could be literal translations, ‘reverse library’ is closer to its description. They are the companies that Curiosity have institutionalized as a central discipline. Bytedance never had experts in recommendation algorithms, had an infrastructure to hold questions about human behavior patterns that no one else considered relevant. Tiktok was born from that sustained question for years. Of an organization designed to explore hypotheses that seemed irrelevant. Today Tiktok is worth between 100,000 and 400,000 million dollarsproduct of productive ignorance made system. Huawei is an extreme example of this philosophy. Your 2024 report It is not a catalog of dominated markets, but an inventory of unexplored territories. Each division – Chips Asce, cloud solutions, 5g infrastructure, Harmonyos– It is designed to colonize spaces that still do not exist, not only to defend known positions. Huawei operates from A mentality that considers each market an experimental laboratory in which to grow questions: What happens when connectivity becomes invisible? How does experience change when hardware and software are designed as a unified ecosystem? What markets appear by merging telecommunications and ia? Amazon monetized his internal infrastructure (AWS), converted trade into entertainment (prime video), endowed voice homes (Alexa). His Antilibrary –Hipothesis not proven – is its innovation engine. McDonald’s improved the experience avoiding tails with kiosks, the wait with internal geolocation through Beaconsreimagined restoration as a digital interface. Burger King perfects hamburgers but McDonald’s rediseña experiences. Another contrast: Mercadona has perfected food distribution until it becomes crafts And thanks to this he is an absolute leader, but he has never wondered what more he could distribute. It is maximum specialization, total efficiency, but not reinvention. Technology has invested the equation: Deep knowledge before was an asset but now it is a liability because the specializations expire in months. Institutionalizing productive ignorance is a way to ensure a better future. Goal can lose virtual reality, Apple can be left behind in ia and Google can see how they move in searches. But companies designed around systematic curiosity can pivot towards territories that still have no name. The future belongs to those who collect better questions. The answers expire, the questions evolve In Xataka | Four AI companies are monopolizing the intellectual future of humanity. They are not good news Outstanding image | Pl in Unspash

Xi Jinping has just decreed the final technological divorce with the United States

by

Nvidia engineers have almost ended the development of a GPU with Blackwell microarchitecture with a single purpose: power replace chip h20 They cannot sell in China. The US Department of Commerce vetoed such exports, so the firm led by Jensen Huang He looked for an exit with a chip adapted to government demands. TSMC is expected to start making this GPU this month, but That effort may even help. Not that Nvidia is fighting with the Absolute distrust of US legislators: China is turning its back. As indicated In SCMPthat chip for the Chinese market is not ready. In the conference for investors that Jensen Huang gave last week he indicated that “the key is to understand the limits and know if we can develop interesting products that can remain useful for the Chinese market. We have nothing to announce at the moment, but we are considering it.” Xi Jinping wants to eliminate the US software and hardware dependence, and is on its way to get it Huang made a surprise trip to China when the veto was announced to those exports in mid -April, and met with several senior Chinese officials to express their commitment to this market. The new chip that theoretically prepares for China will be significantly cheaper than H20but those statements of the CEO of Nvidia already made it clear that it would not be based on said microarchitecture. For Nvidia that effort is logical: during the last fiscal year that ended on January 26, 2025, China represented about 13% of its global income: about 17,000 million dollars. It is the third best client of the company, only behind the US and Taiwan, but the sanctions that the United States government is deploying were one of the great threats to Nvidia’s survival in the Asian giant. The other is even more worrying. Xi Jinping made clear in a session with the Chinese politician that China’s goal is to “deduct” the country’s technologies set Meanwhile, China continues to work tirelessly to completely eliminate its traditional United States dependence in this segment. Companies that are designing GPUS for games and artificial intelligence (AI), and the Chinese government is subsidizing them remarkably after US sanctions. Companies like HuaweiMetax, Biren Technology, Moore ThreadsInnosilicon, Zhaoxin, Iluvatar Orex, Deglinai, Lisuan Technology Or Vastai Tech work in that field. In fact, the problem for Huang and Nivdia is that Xi Jinping made clear in a session With the Chinese politician that China’s objective is to “deduct” the country’s technologies set. All the development of China, both software and hardware, must end up depending on solutions developed in the country. Thus, no matter the efforts that Nvidia can do to create chips adapted to the Chinese market: the president of China wants to depend only on Chinese technology To boost the development of your AI, and that means a worrying news for Nvidia.

The number of smartphones produced by each technological company in the world, illustrated in this graphic

by

The world of technology is fierce. Although in almost all segments we have several brands in Liza, it is one or two that lead. We see it on video games with Nintendo and PlayStationin Nvidia graphics cards or on televisions with Samsung and LG. In the world of mobiles it is not different and, although there are multitude of brandsthose that are distributed by the cake are Apple and Samsung. It is something that It was not always like thatand in this graph prepared by Visual Capitalist We can see the evolution of mobiles produced by the different manufacturers in the last decade, as well as those that survived and those that remained on the road. Dance of two. Although the graph, which reflects the data of Trendforceleave out Many Chinese giantswhat is clear is that the global market is dominated by two players: Apple and Samsung. It is estimated that, between the two, more than 40% of the world smartphones market dominated, highlighting Apple in Income and Samsung in total market volume, and in the Visual Capitalist graph, what we see is not the total market, but the evolution of the units produced by the selected brands. That is the reason why we do not see others like Xiaomi or a huawei that now sells, above all, in China, but for a while He played the reign to Apple and Samsung. Apple Samsung 2015 215.3 million 321.5 million 2016 225.5 million 309 million 2017 225 million 312 million 2018 200.5 million 292.6 million 2019 190.4 million 287.5 million 2020 214.6 million 276 million 2021 239 million 272.8 million 2022 225 million 245.4 million 2023 222.4 million 227.55 million 2024 222.5 million 225.8 million The ones we lost. But, although the graph is not complete, it is interesting for a reason: it allows us to see the evolution of many historical brands outside the two largest today. Thus, we can see how Nokia in 2015, already low Microsoft’s mantle, It was small compared to what it wasbut he kept planting. The same with Sony and, to a lesser extent, Asus and HTC. Nokia and Sony are still there, although with a volume very far away they handled, but the biggest batacazo without counting a Blackberry which was lost in 2018 was LG. The South Korean occupied a privilege position until it vanished in 2021, when they decided abandon completely The smartphones business. Google Sony Nokia LG 2015 – 29.5 million 30 million 66.5 million 2016 450,000 16.4 million 15 million 74.7 million 2017 3.65 million 13.5 million 14.8 million 56.1 million 2018 4.55 million 6.95 million 14.3 million 39.3 million 2019 4.75 million 4.2 million 9.5 million 33 million 2020 4.05 million 2.85 million 6.7 million 30.2 million 2021 6.45 million 2.7 million 3.3 million 3 million 2022 8 million 2.6 million 3.1 million – 2023 10.3 million 2.8 million 780,000 – 2024 10.5 million 2.45 million 160,000 – Google. It seemed that Asus was going to have his time, especially in a few years in which they innovated with their Reversible Chamber Systems – The Zenfone Flip– And some phones like the Zenfone 10 that bet on gross power in a contained size when The rest of the market was going to huge diagonalsbut the adventure did not curdle. Like that of a Sony converted into a niche brand with its Ultrapanoramic screens and powerful recording and editing tools, but that produces fewer units. In the graph we can see a very different story, that of Google. The company has been supporting others such as Samsung, HTC or Asus since 2010 to create His Nexusbut in 2016 they made the leap to their own mobiles with the Google Pixel. That first Pixel was revolutionary in the Android market and, although they have not opted for power, they have been consistent when creating mobile phones with very Good camera systems and one Applied to photography. They have also relied to being the entrance door to New Android versions of each yearand in the graph we can see how they go from having a marginal position to be one with increasing presence. Also in advertising, with series such as Last season of ‘You’ In Netflix in which the characters use brand devices. And the Chinese? They are the great absent of this comparison. Taking data from 2023, Xiaomi shipment about 146.1 million smartphones worldwide, which represented a slight annual decrease in global computing, but a light Growth in a premium segment in which they want to strengthen. Oppo (including Realme and OnePlus) sent about 100 million units and from Huawei there are no data, but after years of sanctionsin 2023 and 2024 They returned strongly to the Chinese market. In fact, although the figures say that the iPhone 15 It was the best -selling mobile of 2024 and Samsung also appears well stopped on the list, last year The great victory went to Chinawith its main brands rising in a spectacular way. And you have to wait for 2026 to see the full photo of 2024. In Xataka | The long goodbye of Huawei in Spain: of strategic partner to Technology Non Grata

The technological one that generates more money is not Apple or Nvidia or Amazon. It is a porn boutique: Onlyfans

by

Onlyfans produces 37.6 million dollars per employee if we divide their income among their number of workers, according to the detailed report he has published Mutiples.vc. It is a figure that destroys any comparison with technological giants. Why is it important. The adult content platform has perfected something that the rest of the technology industry pursues without so successful: extract the maximum possible value with the minimum necessary resources. Apple generates 2.4 million per employee. Goal, 2.2 million. Amazon, just $ 400,000. In figures. Only Tether, the cryptocurrency company, exceeds Onlyfans with 83 million per employee. Then comes Onlyfans. Then an abyss to Valve with 19 million. The rest of the great technological ones go wrong in the photo that compares them. Another business. The model. Onlyfans has built a money printing machine with just a few hundred employees managing 315 million users and 5.3 million creators. Its profit margin touched 49% in 2024, on net income of 1.6 billion dollars. The company takes 20% of everything that creators invoice. Without producing content, without assuming creative risks, without large technological infrastructure. It is pure optimized intermediation to the extreme. Yes, but. Onlyfans dominates a market where concentration is wild. 70% of payments go to 10% of creators. The average creator enters less than $ 150 per month. It is a mARKETPlace ruthless where a few gain fortunes and most subsist. Between the lines. While the great technology hire armies of engineers, designers and executives to compete for attention, Onlyfans solved the problem in another way: to create a space where demand pays directly for specific content. Without complex algorithms, without thorough moderation, without competing for advertisers. The company now seeks an assessment of 8,000 million dollars. It would be just an X10 with respect to its annual benefits, a conservative figure for any technological. But Onlyfans is not any technological company: it is the clearest demonstration that efficiency matters more than size. PUNTEDED.

Xiaomi has turned the windshield of his Yu7 into a giant screen. Electric SUV will be a technological deployment

by

Tomorrow is the big day for Xiaomi. The company will present its second electric car, a SUV under the name of Yu7brother of the sedan su7. The expectation is maximum: the company’s first car is dying of success in Chinaand with this new Xiaomi SUV, it has the opportunity to consolidate even more as a avant -garde manufacturer in the territory of electric cars. As a little pill of what we will see tomorrow, the company He has shown what the interior of the Xiaomi Yu7 will be. While drinking in a certain part of his “little” brother, there is a technological bet that will mark a before and after: his hud. Why does an electric car have less autonomy than the announcing The interior of the Xiaomi Su7. Xiaomi has given some brushstrokes about what we will see inside his new SUV. In the central part, a huge similar screen (if not identical) to that of the Xiaomi Su7, with a very minimalist philosophy, very tesla. The steering wheel also seems practically identical to that of the Berlina, and that is that the main change that we will see in this new model is not so much in the design, but in technology. In Xataka we could go up to the previous version And the summary was clear: the screen was the protagonist, but there was also room for the buttons. This is something to maintain If Xiaomi wants to bring this car to Spain one day. Xiaomi’s head-up. First, a little context. What you are seeing just up is the Head-Up Display of the Xiaomi Su7. It is a striking, but not new technology. It is an optical projection system on a small front windshield area, showing information about GPS indications, speed, safety warnings ADAS and others. It is completely adjustable in height and brightness, and even adapts to the driver’s height. An essential in a car that wants to lead at the technological level, but with little to do with what Xiaomi will show in SU7. Xiaomi Yu7, revealed in a new emerald green. The next step. Xiaomi wants to take this head-up display a step further, and will do it with its SUV. It will be the first to release what Xiaomi calls how Hypervision Hud. The image is not projected here in a small portion of the windshield: it is projected in the entire lower part. Projection area. They have not transcended details about the additional information it will provide, but the margin of maneuver is much higher. Everything indicates that it is not thought so that only the driver has access to information: all passengers can perfectly visualize what is being projected. More technological product than car. The Xiaomi Yu7 comes to continue marking its own story for Xiaomi. One in which their cars do not depreciate, demand is absolutely triggered And, according to the brand, it has the competition worried in launching discredit campaigns. Tomorrow we will know Xiaomi’s second proposal for the electric car, while we are still waiting for the first to end up arriving in Spain.

China prepares its next technological assault. Huawei and Ubtech have just allying to bring humanoid robots to homes

by

Humanoid robotics is ceasing to be a laboratory experiment. Bank of America Global Research CREE that its mass adoption could begin in 2028, with an industry that, if the forecasts were met, will move billions annually. Actually, the change is already underway: in 2025 about 18,000 units should be delivered and it is expected that by 2030 the million annual shipments will be reached, with a view to exceeding 10 million around 2035. While Tesla, Boston Dynamics and Figure AI develop their own humanoids in the US, in China a strategic alliance with global ambitions has been forged. As Sina points outHuawei, one of the country’s largest technological ones, and Ubtech Robotics, one of the most consolidated developers in the sector, have signed an agreement to collaborate in the development of humanoid robots for factories and homes. China steps on the accelerator in the humanoid robots sector The announcement was made in Shenzhen, a city where both companies are headded and considered by one of the main technological centers in southern China. As explained, the objective is to accelerate the transition of humanoid robotics “of laboratory innovation to the Large -scale adoption in industrial, domestic environments and other scenarios. ”Huawei will contribute its Ascend processors and Kunpengas well as cloud computing capabilities and generative AI models. The Alliance also contemplates the creation of an innovation center dedicated to the so -called “incarnate intelligence”: an approach that seeks to integrate cognitive functions into robotic bodies, which requires advanced coordination between algorithms, sensors, movement control and decision -making in real time. According to Leaderobot consultancythe Chinese domestic market of humanoid robotics could double this year and reach 5.3 billion yuan (about 665 million euros). Several of the country’s main manufacturers have already announced plans to overcome 1,000 units produced in 2025. Ubtech is one of them. Its president, Zhou Jian, confirmed it in March. Tien Kung Xingzhe, one of Ubtech’s robots This movement is part of a broader national strategy. As the New York Times detailsthe Chinese government is betting on industrial automation as part of its response to several challenges: commercial challenges, the fall in the birth and aging of the population. In factories such as Zeekr in NOBO, robots already perform tasks that previously required specialized labor. The objective is to maintain low costs and reinforce global competitiveness. And there is more. With the aim of encouraging the adoption of humanoid robots in the automobile industry, the Chinese authorities asked manufacturers to rent units, record videos in real environments and send them to the government. Even in the symbolic field there are blunt gestures: in April, Beijing organized a half marathon with 12,000 human runners and 20 humanoid robots. Only six crossed the goal, but the message was clear. Bank of America Global Research expect this sector evolve in three stages: first in factories and logistics (2025-2027), then in commercial and educational services (2028-2034), And finally in homeswith care and domestic applications from 2035. If the forecasts are met, in 2060 there could be 3,000 million humanoid robots in use worldwide. The challenge is not less. There are still technological bottlenecks, high production costs and dependence on tools and chips manufactured outside China. But with alliances such as Huawei and Ubtech, the Asian giant seems to be taking another determined step not to be left behind. What is clear is that the career to develop more advanced humanoid robots is underway. Images | Rubaitul Azad | Ubtech Robotics In Xataka | Klarna presumed that AI did the work of 700 people.

Before panic for US tariffs there are technological ones doing something uncommon: product collection

by

The scenario of Commercial War between the United States and China is generating an uncomfortable emotion in some of the technological giants: absolute panic by what may happen in the coming months. The supply chain is intended to change, and manufacturers live an uncertainty that increases for weeks. Some of them have begun to move, from Apple to Nintendo, with a clear objective. The collection of as many product units is possible to avoid a greater impact. Standby, not a real pause. The current status of tariffs is that of a ninety -day pause. With the numbers that are right now on the table, the products imported from China to the United States suffer a 145%tariff. The global is set at 10%. They are numbers that are of little use since, since the beginning of the month, they have suffered a practically weekly dance. The situation at the time we write this piece is from standby, but could change completely in a matter of time. Apple, the first to move file. According to sources of Reuters, Apple fought 600 tons of iPhones in airplanes from India to the United States. A total of six commercial flights with a million and a half devices in total. A decision that would be accompanied by An increase in India production of 20%in order to mitigate the impact of tariffs. They are still ridiculous figures compared to the bulk global sales of the iPhone, which exceeds 100 million annually. Nintendo and Switch 2. The Gaming Estrella product in this first half of the year was the new Nintendo Switch 2a device that started from 469.99 euros, but for which price increases are not ruled out. Just a few days after its launch, Nintendo announced The postponement of reservations in the United States. According to sources of Bloombergthe Japanese company is sending thousands of consoles From Vietnam to the United States. The objective is simple: introduce in American territory as many consoles made of China as possible. Consumers begin to answer. The fear of future price increases is not affecting only manufacturers, consumers too They begin to answer. Sources of Bloomberg They ensure that in just a weekend the influx to the American app store has been similar to that of the Christmas campaign, one of the most powerful for Apple. “Sales of networks in North America grew very strong when benefiting from the awarded contracts and the accelerated investment of customers, partly reflecting the uncertainty of tariffs” Manufacturers such as Ericsson have triggered their sales in the first quarter in American territory by 64%, to some extent due to an acceleration in investments in networks infrastructure caused by uncertainty. It is not enough. The world is beginning to respond to the possible stage of a 145%tariff, but neither charting airplanes nor increase production in other countries will be sufficient. The industry is condemned to raise prices to survive, as well as to look for alternative routes for a production chain that has been optimizing for more than two decades.
