Qualcomm saw Nuvia buy as chance to save $1.4 billion a year on Arm fees, CEO tells jury

The chip firm's CEO was testifying as part of a trial to resolve claims that Arm can force Qualcomm to destroy the technology it acquired because Arm never consented to the transfer of Nuvia's license agreements. Qualcomm has used the technology and talent it acquired from Nuvia to spearhead its push into the PC market, where it is hoping to help Microsoft's Windows ecosystem claw back market share lost to Apple in recent years.
