Book Description
This book deals with the critical issues in the management of high-technology enterprises. It focuses on management decisions in each of the major activities typical in such companies: research and development, manufacturing, marketing, and product support. The interplay and ongoing conflicts between these activities are analyzed, and methodology to ensure the smooth flow of products and services in the firm are described. Special attention is devoted to the global high-technology market and to factors affecting success in international competitions and joint ventures. In its effort to offer theories that have been found effective in the field, the subject of mergers and acquisitions in the high-technology industry presented here reflects the strategy and experience of Bernard Schwartz, former CEO of Loral and a world recognized authority in high-technology acquisitions. Through interviews and conversations with leading executives of U.S., European, Israeli, and Asian high-technology companies the author presents real cases, which illustrate the application of the theory and show proven approaches that bring noteworthy results.

Book Description
For over 30 years scholars and practitioners have been looking for an integrative theory that would enable successful Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A). Yet, most M&A destroy, rather than create value (Marks, Mirvis 2011 2008). The goal of this book is to improve the success rate of acquisitions in the technology driven sector through the identification of the most significant factors that affect the outcome of M&A and the way they impact the results. The research is subscribed to interpretive philosophy and case study strategy. The research population includes three technology driven acquisitions that took place between 1999 and 2006. Using in depth interviews, observations and secondary resources the research provides a holistic, rich details description of the acquisitions and its outcomes. The study's contribution to knowledge is the identification of the specific factors that affected the results of researched cases and the development of an integrated, holistic description of the business, technology and organizational aspects that were most directly linked to acquisitions' performance.

Technology-focused Acquisitions

Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
Technology-focused acquisitions are an important complement to the firm’s internal product development efforts. There is considerable heterogeneity when comparing individual technology-focused acquisitions – especially with respect to acquisition timing and the deal value. To resolve some of this heterogeneity the author introduces the novel distinction between performance- and functionality-focused acquisitions. He characterizes this distinction based on a theoretical analysis, a qualitative study, and turns to a sample of acquisitions in the field of artificial intelligence for the quantitative study. There are two key findings. First, performance-focused acquisitions take place earlier in a target’s life cycle than functionality-focused ones. Second, the deal value is – at a comparable stage in a target’s life cycle – higher for performance-focused acquisitions. This thesis is relevant for management scholars and managers alike: Scholars learn about the implications of the distinction between performance- and functionality-focused acquisitions on markets for technology. Managers gain insights into how this distinction may guide their strategic decision making.
