French government proposes buying key assets of Atos to keep them in national hands
The French Government Considers Buying Key Assets of Atos Amid Fears of Foreign Takeover
The French government has shown interest in buying certain key assets of Atos, the debt-laden technology company.

Paris has now sent a non-binding letter to purchase three strategic parts: super calculators for quantum computing used in the country’s nuclear weapons program; secure communication tech utilized by the military and cyber-security assets.

This development highlights a profound transformation in New York’s financial district, where digitalization and significant events such as the 9/11 attacks and the Covid-19 pandemic have accelerated the exodus of financial institutions to more modern and spacious locations in Manhattan and in other areas.

Bank occupancy on Wall Street has fallen dramatically, from 5 million square feet (about 464,515 square meters) to just a couple of hundred thousand, according to John Santora, president of real estate broker Cushman & Wakefield’s New York operations. of square feet since 2000. .
JPMorgan’s move from 45 Wall Street to a headquarters several blocks away highlights this shift toward modernization and efficiency in the banking industry.

This is the strong belief that some doctors have that “treating dementia is meaningless.”
Alzheimer’s experts expected the various requirements associated with lecanemab treatment to be a barrier to uptake. These include additional diagnostic tests, intravenous fluids twice a month, and regular brain checks to prevent potentially fatal side effects.
Indeed, these issues contribute to the slow uptake of lecanemab, according to interviews with 20 neurologists and geriatricians in rural, urban, university and community clinics across 19 states.
But seven doctors who treat patients with Alzheimer’s disease said they were reluctant to prescribe lecanemab because of concerns about the drug’s effectiveness, cost and risks.
“I don’t think it’s a good Alzheimer’s drug, and that’s the problem,” said James Burke, a neurologist at Ohio State University and a vocal critic of lecanemab. “This is far from the home run we’re looking for,” he said.
