Review: "Acquisitions are increasingly used to source capabilities - but often without success. Based on best practices from companies such as HP, IBM, GE and Intel, the book outlines the key factors impacting innovativeness post-acquisition. These underpin a strategic acquisition and integration management concept." "The author provides tools to support managers in their selection of the appropriate target, conducting a technology due diligence, and in choosing and managing the right integration approach."--BOOK JACKET.
