Abstract
Corporate entrepreneurship can play a central role in the integration of mergers and
acquisitions. This paper describes a study spanning seven years for six mergers and
acquisitions that involved UK, US and Swedish acquisitions of East German firms. The
authors used the respective strengths of corporate entrepreneurship to predict the
likely success or failure of each M&A, with very accurate results when they revisited the
companies in 2001. The authors draw further lessons from the study by linking
corporate entrepreneurship to the learning organisation and providing practical lessons
for managers.
