Mergers and Acquisitions, Oh My!
It has been another eventful year for the photonics industry as companies continue to seek new opportunities, fresh markets and complementary technologies to add to their portfolios. The weakening of overall consumer and industry markets in Europe and Asia is pushing smaller companies to consider buyouts, and larger businesses to exploit cash-strapped but technology-rich firms. The continued percolation in merger and acquisition activity likely will continue so long as the Eurozone (slowly)...
