Greek technology company in struggle (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

grapple

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'struggle' is the definition.
(grapple is a kind of struggle)

'greek technology company' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'greek' could be 'gr' (abbreviation for Greek) and 'gr' is found within the answer.
'company' could be 'apple' (Apple is a technology company) and 'apple' is found in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
