ARM’s CEO & senior leadership live in California and it is owned by a Japanese company. IDK if you can count them.

DeepMind lost ~$700M a year until recently. It had to find a patient owner with very deep pockets & could have never made it on its own. Brit companies don’t sell too early as much as they need to sell to survive.
