Last week saw Apple finally announce the launch of its first folding phone - seven years on rival Samsung's heels. With a hefty price tag starting at $2,000 and alternatives flooding the market, has Apple missed the boat on the flip phone revival? And what does it signal for the firm's position as a market leader? Charlie is joined by Alice O'Leary to discuss. Charlie also sat down with Paul Rellis, formerly head of Microsoft Ireland and the reigning chief executive of Viatel Technology Group, the Irish digital service's provider, to discuss the company's recent flurry of expansion and how cybersecurity threats are weighing on indigenous businesses. The Business Post Connected Podcast, a weekly dive into the stories dominating the world of tech, lands every Wednesday morning. Presented by Charlie Taylor Sound by Larry Mockus Editing by Carolyn Goulden and Tim O'Donovan Broadcast co-ordination by Sarah McGuinness Artwork by Garrett Allen.
