2007-06-11
(Monday
)Wow. Google buys DoubleClick. WPP buys 24/7. Microsoft lays down serious cash for aQuantive. And more.
All the major players seem to agree that vertical integration into the ad space is necessary. Are they right?
With Rob Rose, let's discuss:
- What triggered the wave of acquisitions? Is anyone major still in play?
- How do these acquisitions change the Web business? Other businesses?
- Which new combinations sound the most powerful? Why?
As always, an IRC chat will be available during the call at #yitan. (Not familiar with IRC? Just join us here.)
We tweet as @yitan (and use #yitan as our hashtag). Please follow us on Twitter. This page is on the web here.
