When the Trump administration sanctioned the International Criminal Court’s top prosecutor earlier this year, Microsoft cancelled his email account. The incident was brief and bureaucratic. It was also, for European policymakers, clarifying.

When the 29-year-old Samuel Rizzon is asked what he does, he answers with a single word: “developer.” While accurate, it’s a modest label for someone whose work has stretched well beyond writing code. At an age when many engineers are still settling into a single specialty, Rizzon has built products embraced by large enterprises, online […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

The marketed range was $53 to $55. Quantinuum priced at $60. That gap, the willingness of investors to pay above what the bankers asked, is the real news in the Honeywell-backed company’s initial public offering, which raised $1.68bn and set a valuation the entire quantum-computing sector will now be measured against. The mechanics are straightforward. […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

A reinvestment zone is the unglamorous first step, the procedural gate that has to open before any of the larger numbers attached to a project can flow.

The vote is the […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

For more than twenty years Benchmark kept its funds around $425m and backed only young companies, taking a roughly 20% stake in each and trusting that selectivity, not scale, would produce the returns.
