Tech Across the Globe

Korean chip startup rebuffs Meta: Korean chip startup FuriosaAI has turned down an $800 million takeover offer from Meta Platforms, choosing instead to grow the business as an independent company, a person with knowledge of the matter said.

OpenAI executive changes: OpenAI is expanding the role of Chief Operating Officer Brad Lightcamp, who will now lead the effort for corporate partnerships, as Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman shifts more of his focus to the technical side of the AI startup's business. 

Xiaomi share sale: The Chinese firm is set to raise about $5.5 billion in an upsized share sale, capitalizing on a surge in its stock price to invest in its electric-vehicle business. The offering follows EV giant BYD's $5.6 billion fundraising.

Revalued

German software developer SAP has overtaken Danish weight-loss drug maker Novo Nordisk to become Europe's most-valuable public company. SAP shares have risen more than 40% over the past year, as Chief Executive Officer Christian Klein pushed to accelerate customers' shift from traditional on-site servers to infrastructure on the cloud. That process has allowed the company to sell more lucrative products bundled with AI features, boosting revenue growth.
