Abstract

The changing conditions of running a business forces companies to look of collaborative and cooperative activities.

Unfortunately, strategic alliances are not a sufficient enough form of cooperation, because they do not provide. Most of the companies taking part in strategic alliances are individually exposed to takeover or buy-out.

Mergers and acquisitions dominate integration processes, and in the sectors of advanced technologies, the amount of consolidation transactions significant increase has been observed. This is mainly due to the significant costs incurred in the research and development phase and the significant need for external financing. These processes assume, if they are not controlled, they may contribute to the creation of oligopolies or monopolies, which will not promote further progress and at the same time will increase prices, which will adversely affect individual markets and consumers. This paper looks at selected A&E processes in the advanced technology sector.
