Acquisition mania
10 days of big company shopping list activity
M&A holiday shopping season has been on a tear lately.
Side note: I’m also seeing “The agent couldn’t complete with its current set up.” from my Google Workspace Studio. Granted, it’s a new service and I’m not paying any premium for it. Still, a bit disappointing but also understanding. The service is likely being hugged to death as rollout widens beyond the fun alpha access I enjoyed before.
Back to the M&A deals… focusing just on tech and only the first 10 days of December 2025:
- IBM buys Confluent
- Meta buys Limitless
- OpenAI buys Neptune
- ServiceNow buys Veza
- LogicMonitor buys Catchpoint
- Marvell buys Celestial AI
- Anthropic buys Bun
And… there are probably more to come.
