Samsung Invades Silicon Valley

It seems that Samsung is going big in the US.

The Los Angeles Times reports that Samsung has been aggressively expanding its presence in Silicon Valley recently by building its own innovation center, by launching a $100 million venture fund for Silicon Valley startups and by building “a massive new semiconductor campus with a distinctive design destined to compete with Apple’s proposed spaceship-like campus for the title of Silicon Valley’s most distinctive architectural landmark.”

I think they just want to be close to any innovation coming out of the Valley so that they don't have to be so reactive to tech changes. It still seems like destructive innovation is what will be happening between Samsung, Apple, and Google for years to come.
