• Bloomberg reports that Tesco "will invest $750 million this year to accelerate the roll-out of digital services and plans to vie with Amazon.com Inc. and Netflix Inc. for U.K. customers."
"To compete in the new area of retailing I believe that Tesco has to be more than a retail company,” CEO Philip Clarke said at a Singapore conference. “We have to become a technology company as well. That’s why, in 2013, we will invest three quarters of a billion U.S. dollars in technology, up threefold in three years."
