What's wrong with the french riviera ?
Announced by management Tuesday morning, 517 of the 541 positions will be cut. The factory will be closing its doors following a drastic social plan that came as a surprise to many

Microprocessors for tablets and smartphones
The factory at Villeneuve-Loubet worked with microprocessors for tablets and smartphones, a sector being reduced to make way for advancements in home and car technology.
Mayor Estrosi
expressed his feelings, saying he is “shocked” by the closure of such an important stronghold in the region. he should know , his economic development city consultant Tordo was the boss of Texas Tnstruments
Christian Estrosi fait semblant de pleurer mais il est au courant depuis longtemps, en effet Christian Tordo Directeur Général de Texas France est également l'Adjoint aux finances de la ville de Nice. Il faut s'attendre à la même chose avec IBM France qui a un site à la Gaude et qui cherche à s'en dégager depuis plusieurs mois et cela bien avant le changement de gouvernement.
Faudrait aussi que les Francais changent d Etat d esprit au niveau du travail ou qu ils regardent un peu comment cela se passe ailleur....

Closing of TI was known since 5 years, delayed for France elections. Nothing was done for european or Int'l Integration, french relationship networks only don't work in a english tech culture.
