On paper, there’s a lot to like about the new iPad mini that Apple announced this week. Now in its eighth generation, Apple is calling the latest model the biggest upgrade in the product’s history, and that actually feels like a reasonable claim. The most eye-catching addition to the new iPad mini is an 8.5-inch OLED display that fits into about the same footprint as the previous 8.3-inch LCD model due to 24% thinner bezels. The device itself is also thinner, dropping from 6.3 millimeters to 5.4 millimeters, while weight has been reduced by 14% to 255 grams. That’s a…

Americans are heading into the November 3 midterm elections with confidence in Congress at historic lows. A new Gallup poll found that only 14% of Americans approve of the job Congress is doing, the lowest approval rating recorded immediately before a midterm election since Gallup began tracking the measure in 1974. Only 15% of registered voters believe most members of Congress deserve reelection, while just 43% believe their own representative should remain in office. That is the lowest reading for support of one’s own representative in Gallup’s final pre-midterm surveys dating back to 1994. Americans have traditionally criticized Congress while…
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways Invest in human-led branding, messaging and positioning to stand out to customers and investors rather than relying on generic AI-generated content.

After a stretch of record-low VC returns, very few companies seeking capital can afford to be in growth-at-all-costs…

The British government continues promising to support Ukraine for as long as necessary, but nobody seems particularly concerned about how long British taxpayers can afford to finance these commitments. Britain is struggling with enormous sovereign debt, stagnant economic growth, deteriorating public services, and a population that has already endured years of inflation. Yet Westminster…
If you Google “What was Google’s worst day ever?” the answer is now October 29. Shares of parent company Alphabet plunged, erasing roughly $500 billion in market value, according to The Wall Street Journal. The drop pulled the whole Nasdaq down with it and made investors more worried that companies are spending more on AI than they’re getting back. The cause of the bloodbath? Wednesday’s earnings report. Google Services, the unit that includes search ads, YouTube and subscriptions, brought in $96.3 billion. Wall Street expected $98.5 billion. Search revenue grew 12% year over year in the third quarter, a slowdown…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways Moving from founder to chairman means letting go of the “how” and focusing on strategy, capital and accountability. Give your CEO real authority by knowing the line between oversight and interference and don’t hire one until you’re truly ready to let go. As a six-time CEO who has served on 23 corporate boards, I’ve watched the same story unfold in nearly every sector. An ambitious founder builds a business, reaches the point where they want to step back from daily operations, hires a CEO and moves into the chairman role,…
