This IDC study provides an overview and analysis of M&A deals in 2012 across all major sectors of the information and communication technology (ICT) industry, including enterprise IT infrastructure, telecommunications, enterprise applications, IT services, semiconductors and components, Internet, and mobile.
"Although tech M&A activity has stalled in 2012, the past year was outstanding in terms of the trends that have surfaced. As ICT companies across all technology fields are approaching the market opportunity around the new technology platform, built on cloud, mobile, Big Data, and social technologies, 2012 saw a burst of related M&A activity. IDC tracked 710 deals - 18.6% of all M&A deals in 2012 - associated with the four pillars that constitute the new platform. As the conflicting trends of new technology growth drivers and global economic uncertainty will continue into 2013, M&A levels are likely to remain flat in the coming year." - Dan Yachin, research director, IDC EMEA Emerging Technologies
