Silicon Fen is a good place to have a business, Muller tells CNBC

Silicon Valley is not the only place to have tech success, says ARM co-founder Mike Muller in his interview with the news channel CNBC. He explains that UK can compete with the US tech hub from its own Silicon Fen.

 

In the video Mike Muller, co-founder and chief technology officer at ARM, explains about how his company has become globally renowned, and the benefits of being based in Cambridge.

He said that it was an advantage being in Cambridge as in the early days all the customers were in Japan and America and "it was a question of us having great talent here and the engineering base was here but our customers were elsewhere."

Muller sits on the board of Cambridge Innovation Capital, an investor in high-growth technology companies in the Cambridge cluster, and in his interview touches on funding for technology in Europe and the differences between Europe and America – and that while there is no doubt that finding funding in the US tends to be easier than in Europe, "it's not impossible to do it here for quality companies.”
