Intel Exits 5G Modem

0

When Apple and Qualcomm settled their legal cases, Intel experienced the consequence of that truce. Intel is Apple’s current 4G modem supplier but has struggled to create 5G modem. With the Apple 5G modem opportunity out, Intel does not see a clear future therein. Consequently, Intel has exited the 5G modem business.

Intel abandoned its efforts to develop modems for the next generation of wireless technology Tuesday, just hours after rival Qualcomm reached a settlement with Apple over wireless technology for the iPhone.

Intel chief executive Bob Swan said the chipmaker is now “assessing our options” for the future of its wireless business but said the forthcoming, superfast 5G technology “continues to be a strategic priority across Intel.”

“We are very excited about the opportunity in 5G and the ‘cloudification’ of the network, but in the smartphone modem business it has become apparent that there is no clear path to profitability and positive returns,” Swan said in a written statement. He said the company will say more about its wireless plans when it releases first-quarter financial results next week.

This was my postulation when the truce news broke: Apple wanted 5G modem and no one would give it that but Qualcomm. With Intel not ready, and Huawei a no-go-area, Apple had to dance to the music of Qualcomm. So, magically, the legal cases and the premises upon which they were built became irrelevant – iPhone 5G must be in the market to compete with Samsung Galaxy! Just like that Apple has to work with Qualcomm, and yes –  they settled.

Do not be deceived, Apple would not have settled with Qualcomm if it has any other alternative to get 5G into iPhone effectively. As it stands today, Intel is not ready and Huawei is a no-go area, so only Qualcomm can power Apple’s 5G future. That is why after all the wasted years and making lawyers richer, Apple agreed to pay Qualcomm to close all the legal issues, and then quickly placed orders with six-year licensing agreement.

But note that market rewarded both Intel and Qualcomm – Intel has no business in 5G modem; high-end mobile modem has always been Qualcomm domain. Simply, Intel should focus on what it knows how to make – server chips. Yes, markets think Apple just did Intel a favor by getting it to focus on what it knows how to do. For Qualcomm, it was a moment – the enemy is back to the fold, as a friend. The stock responded.

Apple and Qualcomm were always going to settle, eventually. When Apple sued Qualcomm over alleged monopolistic contracts, extortionist pricing practices, patents infringements, and other poisons in the new year, Qualcomm had not only counterclaimed but also countersued.

The only way out of such battles between big boys is settlement, except you want to have a long war like that between Apple and Samsung. So I’m happy that both Apple and Qualcomm have settled this matter. While this settlement allows Intel focus on its core market as you have said, I am more concerned about the monopoly this might lead to in the market. I remember that anti-trust regulators have raised concerns about this before.

In Europe, Qualcomm was fined $1.2 billion for paying Apple to use its chips and keep its fingers off competitors’ chips from 2011 to 2016. With the new romance between Apple and Qualcomm, regulators should keep their eyes open.

My Response: Good points. Intel is not leaving out of strength. It knows it cannot compete with Qualcomm on 5G modem and with Apple signing 6- year contract, there is no market to serve. So, not pretending it is still doing 5G modem is wisdom. On antitrust, it is what it is – the market is free, anyone can jump in if you can handle the heat. That should not be an issue.

It’s about making use of that famous thing called ‘common sense’, which most times – a lot of people fail to activate theirs, thereby allowing their stupidity to take preeminence! Apple was able to activate its common sense, Intel did same, Qualcomm did likewise; so all of them are likely to live happily after.

Finishing the Mission

They travelled around cities with their Master. They experienced great moments and accomplished great things. They saw miracles – dumb spoke, deaf heard, diseases cured, lame walked, etc. But when the Master was crucified and buried, they were disappointed. The master has left a promise: I will be back. And He could have expected them to be checking where He was buried.

No – they did not bother. They were disappointed because the physical presence of the Master was no more. The travels across cities had ended. And a great Friend was taken. The special people around the Messiah were now hiding. Possibly, going back to fishing may be an option, for some. In the midst of the disappointment, they forgot that promise of I will be back.

But the Master, legendary in His strategies on the Call to Mission had recruited great women as well, for the most important phase of the Mission – receiving and announcing the resurrection. Yes, the men – the disciples – may be down for the events on friday [you cannot blame them], but the women, though in pains, would not just give up, even to anoint the body!

It’s early in the D-day, the men were not to be found. But the women found the empty tomb and received the eternal message: “He has risen! …But go, tell his disciples and Peter…”

In business, as you build with the C-level executives (the disciples), make sure you consider the contributions which others can bring (here, the women). The message the three women passed from the angel to the disciples remains the heart of the Grace. Imagine if they were not involved – the reunion in Galilee might not have happened. They were not backups to hear “He has risen”– they are women who never give up, no matter the challenge.  That market is hopelessly gone, but they will say “we can still try something new”.

You need a complete team to finish a mission.

The Call to Mission

It wasn’t by mistake that no human is self-sufficient, it was a design to value complementarity; and when neglected – things go awry.

If you are in a board or executive meeting and everyone always agree with your viewpoints, then you need to be really worried, the group could be on its way to damnation. You need one or two persons who do not see or think like you; they are your insurance, a dependable backup!

Most big events and decisions always come down to finer details, which usually escape the gaze of those with ‘big ideas’, you need those who care about the small things as well; they are highly invaluable. Importance is relative, because circumstance changes everything, making it possible for the ‘least’ person in the group to suddenly become the life-wire; do not neglect that.

In some circles, we talk about Authentic Informal Leaders, the real people that communicate company’s vision, making sure that everyone buys in. Real diversity captures all elements, not the type that is a product of political correctness or societal pressure; look deeper, to realise why things work so well in certain places. Any great mission must be a product of all encompassing team attributes.

Women at work. The value of having the eye and heart of a woman is far beyond the ordinary. Who would have thought the men will be no were to be found? Sometimes the women have a lion heart.

It’s so inspiring thinking of how we can apply to business, the principles summed up in the live and choice of the greatest leader who ever walked the face of the earth hashtagJesus. It’s so instructive to know that the hashtagWomen held on to the master’s vision and believed it’s fulfilment, when the hashtagMen were unbelieving.
