Is the £1,999 iPhone Duo worth it? Not for everyone — only for people who actually work across screens.

Apple's first foldable iPhone isn't a novelty. It's a workspace. The larger 7.6-inch display justifies the premium only if you're opening it multiple times a day for real work: split-screen documents, video calls with notes, or media review.

At launch, IDC forecasts Apple could capture 44% of the foldable segment's value — proving that premium pricing and a focused audience beat volume plays.

The real engineering win? Both screens work as one system. iOS 27 treats the hinge as an input. Apps respond to the phone's position without losing content or controls.

Read the full breakdown: consumer case, business implications, engineering deep-dive, and who should actually buy it.

Could water become one of this century’s most valuable assets?

The global water investment story is gathering momentum. The smart-water management market is projected to reach $43.7 billion by 2030, while the United States alone may require more than $3 trillion to modernise its ageing water infrastructure.

Meanwhile, US data centres consumed approximately 17.4 billion gallons of water in 2023—a figure that could rise to as much as 73 billion gallons by 2028 as demand for artificial intelligence expands.

From Xylem, Veolia and Ecolab to utilities, desalination specialists and smart-metering companies, the businesses that can clean, move, monitor and conserve water are attracting serious investor attention.

Read the full article to discover why water is shifting from an operational cost to a strategic global asset—and where the greatest opportunities and risks may lie.

A new chapter begins at Apple.

After 15 years as CEO, Tim Cook has moved into the role of executive chairman, handing leadership of the world’s most valuable company to John Ternus—Apple’s hardware chief and a 25-year company veteran.

Cook leaves behind a formidable record: Apple’s market value grew from approximately $350 billion in 2011 to nearly $4 trillion, while annual revenue climbed from $108 billion to more than $416 billion. Its global ecosystem now includes over 2.5 billion active devices.

With an engineer now at the helm, what could the Apple CEO transition mean for artificial intelligence, hardware innovation, wearables, spatial computing and the company’s next era of growth?

Quantum computing has spent years being described as “five years away”. In 2026, that familiar line may finally be wearing a little thin.

IBM is targeting verifiable quantum advantage, Google’s Willow chip has advanced error correction, and Microsoft and Quantinuum are pushing logical qubits towards greater reliability. Meanwhile, governments, investors and businesses are treating quantum technology less like an elaborate laboratory experiment and more like strategic infrastructure.

The machines remain expensive, fragile and rather particular about the problems they solve. But the transition from noisy demonstrations to early fault-tolerant quantum computing is becoming increasingly difficult to dismiss.

What does this mean for drug discovery, finance, logistics, cybersecurity and the future of business?

Read the full article to understand why 2026 could be remembered as the year quantum computing finally got serious.

Sometimes Mondays need motivation, and what better place to look than for some inspiring words from world leaders!

There is something refreshing about this line from Delphine Arnault. It feels particularly relevant in luxury, where every leader must decide how much of the past to preserve—and when it is time to move forward.

Arnault has been Chairman and CEO of Christian Dior Couture since February 2023, and it has not been the easiest period for the luxury industry. Analysts estimated Dior’s 2024 sales at nearly €14 billion, including beauty, although the house was also feeling the effects of weaker global demand.

One of her biggest decisions was appointing Jonathan Anderson to lead Dior’s womenswear, menswear and haute couture—the first designer to oversee all three since Christian Dior himself. By the second quarter of 2026, LVMH’s Fashion and Leather Goods division had returned to 1% organic growth, with the group highlighting the positive reception to Anderson’s first Dior designs.

Her work also goes beyond Dior. The LVMH Prize, which she founded in 2014, now offers its winner €400,000 and a year of mentorship. Women@Dior & UNESCO has also supported more than 2,800 young women from over 75 schools and nearly 90 nationalities.

Perhaps that is why her words feel so fitting. Building on a legacy does not mean repeating what has already been done. Sometimes, it means knowing what to protect—and having the confidence to change everything else.
