Apple announced yesterday that the Exposition due to be held in Paris next week has been cancelled. Apple stated the safety of its users and developers could not be subjected to any risk of an attack. This action by Apple is understandable, however it seems to go against the U.S attempt to return to ‘normality’ marked by the re-opening of the stock market.

VIA were due to hold the Technology Forum road show in Munich last week and have not yet stated when the re-scheduled event will take place.
