SAP announced to spend more money for acquisitions in 2006 than the year before. In 2005, SAP invested 242 milliion Euro in several smaller companies. The software vendor wants to keep this proceeding of being very selective, only buying companies with special techologies or with special knowledge in certain industries.
I find this strategy of an "organic growth" much better and easier to handle than what e.g. Oracle does. Let's see how they will manage to build one consistent software out of the various products of the divers vendors (Peoplesoft, Siebel, …) they bought.
