A New England based company that recently did business with Apple, GT Advanced, has declared bankruptcy.

Boston Business Journal technology editor David Harris joined NECN to discuss the fall of GT Advanced.

Harris explains why the deal fell apart, how many employees lost their jobs and if apple is going to pay GT Advanced.
