M&A Snapshot: Q2 Transactions

« Back to Main Ecosystem Thoughts Page

Architect Partners tracked 372 M&A transactions  which took place in the 2nd quarter of 2010 within the converging internet, mobile and digital media sectors.  Of these, 40 had announced transaction value between $25 million and $1 billion.  We keep careful tabs on these transactions as many are venture backed and represent an attractive exit for venture investors.  Also of note, are transactions where transaction value was not announced but was almost certainly within that same range.  Below we summarize this activity for the second quarter of 2010.  Over the past quarter, via our M&A Alert, we have published a more in-depth strategic assessment of 20 of these transactions.  Those are noted and linked below.
