Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This describes a merger where two or more corporations combine their businesses and assets to form a single entity. Often, only one corporation survives as the dominant player in the industry. Strategic alliances involve two or more companies working together for a specific purpose or project but not necessarily combining their businesses. Diversification, acquisitions, and concentration may involve external growth strategies but do not necessarily result in one corporation surviving.
