Google: Doing more on diversity
Mountain View, Calif., USA - May 05, 2015 - When we released the composition of our workforce almost a year ago, it confirmed what many people suspected: the tech industry needs to do a lot more when it comes to diversity. Since then, the question I get asked most is - so what are you doing about it? You may have heard about some of the work we've been doing: embedding engineers at Historically Black Colleges and Universities; partnering with Hollywood to inspire girls to pursue careers in computer science; building local initiatives to introduce coding to high school students from diverse communities; and expanding our employee unconscious bias training. But these programs represent only a sampling of all the work that is going on behind the scenes. If we're really going to make an impact, we need a holistic plan. Today, we want to share our diversity strategy, which is focused on four key areas: Hire diverse Googlers, Foster a fair and inclusive culture, Expand the pool of technologists, Bridge the digital divide.

Fujitsu Develops World's First Technology that Visualizes Complexity of Business Logic in a Program's Code
Kawasaki, Japan - May 01, 2015 - Fujitsu Laboratories Ltd. today announced the development of the world's first technology for visualizing the degree of complexity of the business logic in complex, large-scale business applications. Fujitsu has developed a technology that automatically identifies business logic in the program code, and one that quantifies the complexity of business logic using a numerical index derived from the number of branches and other factors. This makes it possible to visualize business logic with simple analysis of application assets. This technology can reduce the time required to analyze business applications, which ordinarily takes considerable effort, and help companies quickly make improvements or add new features in response to changing business conditions.

50 Years of Moore's Law. Fueling Innovation We Love and Depend On
Intel Corporation, USA - April 2015 - In 1965, Gordon Moore made a prediction that would set the pace for our modern digital revolution. From careful observation of an emerging trend, Moore extrapolated that computing would dramatically increase in power, and decrease in relative cost, at an exponential pace. The insight, known as Moore's Law, became the golden rule for the electronics industry, and a springboard for innovation. As a co-founder, Gordon paved the path for Intel to make the ever faster, smaller, more affordable transistors that drive our modern tools and toys. Even 50 years later, the lasting impact and benefits are felt in many ways.

GE To Create Simpler, More Valuable Industrial Company By Selling Most GE Capital Assets More Than USD 90 Billion
Fairfield, Conn., USA - April 10, 2015 - GE (NYSE:GE) today announced that it will create a simpler, more valuable company by reducing the size of its financial businesses through the sale of most GE Capital assets and by focusing on continued investment and growth in its world-class industrial businesses.

Under the plan, the GE Capital businesses that will remain with GE will account for about USD90 billion in ending net investments (ENI) excluding liquidity - about USD40 billion in the U.S. - with expected returns in excess of their cost of capital. As part of the execution of this new plan, GE announced today an agreement to sell the bulk of the assets of GE Capital Real Estate to funds managed by Blackstone. Wells Fargo will acquire a portion of the performing loans at closing. In total, these transactions are valued at approximately USD26.5 billion.

Daniel Boniecki, McKinsey & Company: Polska gospodarka może awansować do światowej ekstraklasy
Warszawa - 07 kwietnia 2015 - "Polska gospodarka może awansować do światowej ekstraklasy. Dziś Polska ma szansę wejść przed 2025 rokiem do ligi zamożnych krajów Unii Europejskiej. W ciągu ostatnich 25 lat podwoiliśmy realny PKB i jako jedyna gospodarka Unii Europejskiej uniknęliśmy recesji w czasie kryzysu. Skumulowany wzrost PKB Polski w latach 2007-2014 wyniósł 24 procent, podczas gdy Niemiec 5,7 proc., a Francji 2,2 proc. Po wyborach konieczne będą reformy na miarę planu Balcerowicza." - pisze Daniel Boniecki, dyrektor zarządzający McKinsey & Company w Polsce, szef pionu TMT w Europie Środkowo-Wschodniej, na Bliskim Wschodzie i w Afryce.
