Tech dealmakers have been on a hot streak. But they may need to toss out the old M&A playbook as the landscape changes, according to a new report from Bain Wednesday.
Tech deal volume has grown 31% annually over the past five years, according to a new report from Bain. But strategies that drove that growth may need to be readjusted for new realities.
"Trends are shifting and they're shifting quickly," Adam Haller, partner with Bain Company's global M&A technology practice says. "For executives, strategies that made them successful in the past aren't going to work in the future." Part of the rationale for expanding business lines is to gear up for new technologies such as 5G and cloud computing. The emerging technologies are creating demand for new products, better security and more automation, according to Bain. Haller pointed to deals like Intel's $15.3 billion acquisition of Mobileye and Microsoft's $26.2 billion purchase of LinkedIn that helped secure access to proprietary data.
