Отрывок из книги

To George S. Geis, Terri L. Geis, and Anne L. Geis – three ongoing sources of semi-organic growth

Then along came Google. Starting with the early days of Google, acquisitions appeared to play a particularly important role in the strategic unfolding of this iconic company. Google was becoming an experimental lab, not only for products and services but also in utilizing M&A to further its purposes.

Chapter 7 explains how acquisitions have played a key role in extending Google beyond its core search/advertising business to an ever-expanding technology platform for new products and services. The chapter explores acquisitions that relate to subsectors of this platform, including smartphone, smart home, robotics, and artificial intelligence.

Chapter 8 illustrates that although Google is regarded as having developed the most successful technology M&A program in history, certainly not all of its deals have done well. This chapter examines some of Google's abortive transactions and suggests reasons for these failures. We also provide an analysis of gains and losses associated with the purchase of Motorola Mobility.
