Nvidia to Acquire Arm for $40B
When will Europe realise that there is no second place when it comes to a market - the larger player will always eventually end up owning everything.<p>I can not put into words how furious I am at the UK's Conservative party for not protecting our last great tech company.<p>Europe has been fooled into the USA's ultra free market system (which works brilliantly for the US but is terrible for everybody else). As such American tech companies have brought EVERYTHING and eventually moth balled them.<p>Take Renderware it was the leading game engine of the PS2 era consoles, brought by EA and mothballed.  Nokia is another great example brought by Microsoft and mothballed.  
 Imagination Technologies was slightly different in that it wasn't bought but Apple essentially mothballed them.  Now ARM will undoubtedly be the next via an intermediate buyout.<p>You look across Europe and there is nothing.  Deepmind could have been a great European tech company - it just needed the right investment.
