Abstract
Increasing competition and globalisation force firms to
grow, internationalise and find new business
opportunities. New business is expected to create growth
as well as to increase the competitive strength of the
company. However, the creation process may be
challenging. The situation is even more complex in the
context of mergers and acquisitions (M&A). New business
creation may require one large acquisition, or a number
of smaller ones. Success depends largely on how well
these acquisitions are managed and integrated. This
chapter lays the groundwork for the phenomenon under
scrutiny, NBC through M&A, introducing the topic and the
focal concepts.
