Paul Mozur, IBM Venture with Chinese Stir Concern; Critics say IBM places short-term gains over longer-term trade and political issues. New York Times, Apr 20, 2015 (front page).

Quote:

"In the past 16 months, IBM has agreed — and received permission under US export laws — to provide the Beijing company, Teamsun, with a partial blueprint of its higher-end servers and the software that runs on them, according to IBM announcements and filings from Teamsun.

"IBM said it was simply being open with licensing technologies as part of a global program called Open Power. Open Power, which IBM initiated in 2013, has 120 members worldwide, including Google and Samsung Electronics. Fewer than 20 are from China, IBM said.

"Language about replacing IBM, Oracle and EMC was removed from the [Teamsun web-]site after Teamsun and IBM were contacted for this article.

IBM "has also agreed to license the advanced chip technology that works as the brain of the servers to a separate Chinese company, Suzhou PowerCore.

"IBM's cooperation with Teamsun and Suzhou PowerCore through Open Power is part of the company's strategic shift away from its traditional hardware, software and services businesses to new cloud, data and mobile offerings. * * * Both the server and chip technology IBM is licensing in China are widely used by banks in the country [judging from the context--mainly because China is just mentioned--'the country' alludes to China].
