After Acquiring Macromedia, What's Next for Adobe? Ask Bruce Chizen - Knowledge@Wharton

Wortha read. The Adobe-Microsoft showdown is ramping up. I love this opening question and answer. No beating around the bush!

After Acquiring Macromedia, What's Next for Adobe? Ask Bruce Chizen - Knowledge@Wharton: "Knowledge@Wharton: How does it feel to have closed the acquisition of Macromedia?

Chizen: It's great. It is going even better than I had anticipated. And we went into it being realistic. Any kind of merger and acquisition activity is hard. But there have been no surprises -- which is shocking.

That doesn't mean there won't be!

Knowledge@Wharton: Let's start with the basic question: What was the primary motivation behind the acquisition of Macromedia?

Chizen: Flash.

Knowledge@Wharton: That simple?"
