Tiivistelmä
This thesis paper gives the reader data about Finnish and German media corporations, prior to the mergers and acquisitions process, how the mergers & acquisitions action was concluded, and some key performance indicators after the mergers & acquisitions, with an interest to their information technology integration. It tries to distinguish differences between Finland and Germany, where applicable, and especially between the cross border and local mergers & acquisitions. In some parts Finland and Germany are remarkably similar and in others the two states couldn’t be more far apart.
When considering Finland and Germany one must remember, that their cultural proximity is close, the countries have traded with each other for many years. Therefore, it is not desirable to try to find the needle from the haystack, or in other words it is unlikely to find major differences between the two countries.
