And this something that has been happening for a long time and is that the Cupertino company has the "habit" of looking at small companies or companies that are developing some technology that they believe could be useful and buy it. In this case the data is official and was the CEO of the company Tim Cook himself, in charge of giving the concrete data in an interview on CNBC.
Six months to get a whopping de between 20 and 25 small businesses It is an important piece of information. The Cupertino firm has been carrying out this type of operation for a long time and this helps it to perfect its market strategies in terms of the hardware that it implements in its current or future devices..
We buy "small businesses" that can bring new features to our devices
And it is that Apple is not one of the companies that jump to the purchase of large companies, normally the companies or startups that acquire are small and specialized in some functions that they could implement in their equipment in the future, contribute patents to their long list of registries or similar. It is true that later some of them do not end up providing everything they expect, but ultimately Apple's interest is always related to development and they never make purchases to harm the competition or the like.
In short, the interview that we can read in full in the CNBC It does not reveal anything to us that we do not already know about the firm, but it provides data as important as the number of companies with which Apple remains for its own benefit and that of its clients, in this case all of us.
