Why European tech firms cant compete with Silicon Valley titans is a mystery that Phill Robinson is attempting to answer. In order to replicate the network effects of Silicon Valley, he established Boardwave, a networking platform that seeks to transform Europe into a software superpower. On March 30, he revealed one of his most audacious ideas at TNW Valencia building a panEuropean version of Nasdaq, the top market for IT stocks in the world. There is a significant exit gap between European and US enterprises as a result of investors lack of expertise, knowledge, and understanding of software. Arms flotation ambitions serve as a bitter illustration of this, as the British chip maker plans to ignore requests from the UK government to list in London and instead float in New York.

In an effort to crack down on packaging that makes nebulous promises about being environmentally safe, the South African Bureau of Standards SABS is establishing new certification rules for plastics in South Africa. The new laws clearly warn against making general environmental claims such as environmentally safe, environmentally friendly, earth friendly, nonpolluting, green, ozone friendly, plastic free, etc., according to Dr. Sadhvir Bissoon, the interim CEO of the Bureau.

Microsoft Corp is expected to secure EU antitrust approval for its $69 billion acquisition of Activision by offering licencing deals to competitors, according to three people familiar with the matter.
