    It is true what they said about the Americans or Chinese buying companies.

    Any big company here ends up being an “add on” to one of the big tech giants.

    For example, Wolt, a very big Finish food delivery app, was recently acquired by Doordash.

    As soon as something becomes huge in Europe, the big companies buy them.
