These companies […] - [Does Meta Have a Death Wish?](https://www.internetnews.com/enterprise/meta-metaverse-disaster.md): There are times when I’m convinced that Meta (formerly known as Facebook) has a death wish.

None […] - [U.S. Needs to Protect Tech Leadership: Qualcomm](https://www.internetnews.com/enterprise/u-s-needs-to-protect-tech-leadership-qualcomm.md): This week, Qualcomm held an event in Washington, D.C. to raise concerns about intellectual property creation, control and protection – and specifically against the rise of China as a technological powerhouse that could displace U.S. leadership.

What Ossia sells is a wireless power solution that, unlike the inductive wireless technology currently being used for devices and electric cars, can transmit up to eight meters (around 26 feet). That’s roughly 20 feet more than the typical limits of inductive technology. Ossia’s wireless power solution can’t […] - [Best Internet Security Software](https://www.internetnews.com/security/best-internet-security-software.md): After more than a year of high-profile cyber attacks and now the threat of cyber war, businesses and even consumers are taking cybersecurity seriously.

Haas not only has […] - [Arm’s Potential Path Post-Nvidia](https://www.internetnews.com/enterprise/arm-potential-path-post-nvidia.md): Last week, after the apparent demise of Nvidia’s bid to acquire Arm, I wrote about Nvidia’s potential path forward now that the Arm merger is effectively dead thanks to the current anti-big tech environment in the U.S. and antitrust concerns elsewhere.
