這是探討戰(zhàn)略性業(yè)務(wù)開發(fā)之重要性的系列文章的結(jié)局篇)。在這篇文章里,自動(dòng)化軟件供應(yīng)商Opsware前副總裁全程回顧了公司在金融危機(jī)全面爆發(fā)之前成功將公司整體出售給惠普的歷程,過程跌宕起伏如好萊塢大片。
??? 結(jié)語 ????雖然我們創(chuàng)辦Opsware的初衷從來都不是為了出售公司,收購卻最終成為對股東和雇員最有利的結(jié)果。我們的公司顯然是一個(gè)很有價(jià)值的收購目標(biāo),但最終的驚人溢價(jià)也來自于公司對戰(zhàn)略業(yè)務(wù)開發(fā)的持續(xù)投資和嚴(yán)格執(zhí)行的交易過程。當(dāng)然,你首先得知道,出路在什么地方 。 |
????In summary ????Although we never built Opsware with the intent of selling it, acquisition ultimately turned out to be the best outcome for our shareholders and our employees. While the company was clearly an attractive target, the significant premium we achieved in the sale was also the result of the company's ongoing investment in strategic business development and a tightly executed deal process. And in knowing where the exits were. |
