LONDON — It seems that 2017 was a year of major disruption in Apple’s established U.K. supplier roster. The one most impacted by this is Imagination Technologies, who supplied its PowerVR graphics processing unit (GPU) chips. Imagination not only lost key engineers to Apple who set up a 22,500-square-foot design center in St. Albans, only a few miles from Imagination Technologies, but also ended up being bought out for £550M (around $700M) by Chinese-backed Canyon Bridge in November 2017.
