Know about the book -

R & D Meets M & A is written by Arthur A. Daemmrich and published by Chemical Heritage Foundation. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0941901351 (ISBN 10) and 9780941901352 (ISBN 13).

R&D Meets M&A contains edited papers given by a group of senior executives, chief technology officers, economists, and business analysts at the Chemical Heritage Foundation on 29 April 2003. Together, these papers make the case that successful mergers require an expanded role for research divisions and should be driven by compatible innovation cultures. Looking to the future, only a combination of greater in-house R&D and increased use of joint ventures will improve the chemical industry's competitive standing as it copes with emerging new markets and competing science-based businesses.
