I ’m sure there are some benefit in being found in Cupertino , California . But in an effort to build its external front beyond its home base , Apple is looking to establish a new enquiry and ontogeny centre in Cambridge , England . .
Apple is currently said to be eyeing up a 9,030 sq foot property on 90 Hills Road in the university town . Cambridge has become something of a technical school hub in late years — Apple partner ARM has operations there , as does Qualcomm after its buyout of CSR . That ’s before you take into account smaller firms and the plentiful technology endowment pouring out of the university .
In addition to the new adroitness , Apple ’s hire a number of UK developers too , formerly of Caffeinehit , the defunct startle - up behind chromosome mapping app Pin Drop . It ’s picked up five new staff member , presumably to be found at the new Cambridge site , and in all probability brought in to bolster Apple ’s shaky Maps proposition .
Apple ’s UK push follows a similar mission from Google , which has set up shopin rival university Ithiel Town Oxford , where it is pumping money into AI research . Google also this yearacquired UK - based Deep Mind , another AI - focussed fellowship . [ TechCrunch ]
