Stripe Opens New Office in Latin America
Stripe recently announced the addition of a new flagship office in Mexico City. The online payment mogul which has taken Silicon Valley by storm is expanding into Latin America where promising business expansion lies ahead.

Trump Administration Introduces Ban on Huawei Equipment and Services
Washington announced a ban on Wednesday prohibiting American government agencies from purchasing telecom equipment and services directly from select telecom companies in China.

Slated to take effect on August 13, the rule will be added to the National Defense Authorization Act which passed last year.
A broader ban scheduled to go into effect in 2020, is leaving government contractors questioning what the changes will mean for their business. A spokesman for the office of Management and Budget stated they will comply with Congress on the introduction of prohibition of Chinese telecom and video surveillance equipment in order to protect the U.S. from foreign adversaries.
