Meta Tries to Buy Within: Hit with Antitrust Lawsuit by FTC

 Yesterday, the Federal Trade Commission took Meta to court, filing an injunction over the tech giant’s bid to buy the emerging virtual reality company Within, which created the fitness app Supernatural. The antitrust lawsuit, set in motion by Lina Khan, seeks to bar Meta from expanding its grasp on the virtual and augmented reality landscape under the assumption that the two companies may become competitors if they were not to merge.

Capitalizing on the Wearable Turnover

Image
While   smartphones   have traditionally led the way when it comes to   connected devices , the rapid rise of   hearables   and wearables and their growing popularity amongst tech savvy consumers is widening the breadth of consumer connected devices. According to the International Data Corporation (IDC), in 2021 the wearables market grew 20 percent year over year with total shipments reaching 533 million units.  With more hearable and wearable product options being introduced to the  market  at a variety of price points, retailers can offer customers more opportunities to  upgrade  to the next generation of smart watches, fitness trackers, earbuds, etc. It’s a great time to begin cultivating the secondary device ecosystem for these devices, using the thriving trade-in market for smartphones as the blueprint for capturing the latent value in pre-owned products while providing incentives for customers to upgrade to new devices.  ...

How Retailers Can Capitalize on the Inflation Reduction Act

  In 2021,   EV   sales totaled   6.6 million or 8.6 percent  of all new car sales and that number is only expected to increase over the coming years after the   Inflation Reduction Act  was signed into law earlier this month. The new measure features funding for over 500,000 new EV chargers and provides a slew of incentives for customers and manufacturers alike. The target of the new legislature is to get more low-income consumers into electric vehicles to increase mass adoption of the cars and to buck the image of EVs as unobtainable luxury vehicles. California, one of the states on the forefront of pushing for EV adaptation has a program awarding low-income customers nearly $17,500 towards purchasing a used EV.  The Inflation Reduction Act is the first step in the Biden administration’s goal of reaching half of all new cars sold being electric by 2030. While EVs are becoming increasingly popular in states such as California and Massachusetts,...
