Starbucks to close 250 North American stores this week
Starbucks is planning to close 250 North American stores later this week, marking the second major store closure under Chairman and CEO Brian Niccol. The closures are due to financial issues or lack of customer and employee satisfaction, according to Starbucks COO Mike Grams. The company did not specify which coffeehouses will close or how many are located in the U.S. The union representing workers at the 700 company-owned U.K. Starbucks stores have been voting to unionize since 2021, but the union and the company have yet to reach a labor agreement. The move comes as Starbucks continues to cut its corporate ranks and incur $300 million in restructuring charges, including $200 million in cash charges as it exits leases and pays employee separation benefits.

'AI Semiconductor King' Nvidia Meets Rebellion [Behind the Chips] - MoneyToday
Nigher Huang, CEO of Nvidia (Chief Executive Officer), met with Park Sung-hyun, CEO, Rebellion, regarding potential technical cooperation or acquisition. The discussions, which remain confidential, may impact Rebellion's growth trajectory depending on the extent of technical cooperation. Some analysts speculate that this may be related to 'NVLink Fusion,' the protocol for internal server semiconductor communication technology (scale-up interconnect) announced by Nvidia last May. As 'Heterogeneous' computing becomes the mainstream trend, NVLink, the connection protocol used only between Nvidia GPUs, is being opened to external platforms. As this trend becomes mainstream, Nvidia semiconductors are expected to be installed in heterogeneous servers even if rival semiconductor companies emerge. However, industry insiders suggest that if Rebellion chooses an independent path, it could result in the global AI infrastructure trend moving away from Nvidia, but there is no guarantee this will succeed.

CSU plans to drop current English test mandate for international applicants
The California State University (CSU) plans to remove the current English test mandate for international applicants from the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) for those whose schooling was in a language other than English to prove their proficiency in the language. Vice Chancellor Dilcie Perez proposed an amendment to the university's admissions policy that would replace TOEFL with "multiple approved measures" to demonstrate English proficiency. The proposal, which mostly affects international applicants, will be voted on by a 25-member board in November. The move comes as the University of California debates whether to reinstate a standardized testing requirement in its undergraduate admissions policy.
