As larger companies reduce spending on research and development they are looking at smaller biotech companies to diversify their product lines. M&A allows bigger companies to acquire products and technology that are already proven in the market place, avoiding the many risks associated with research and development.
On Thursday Biotechnology Company Human Genome Sciences rejected a $2.59 billion takeover bid from GlaxoSmithKline. The announcement comes just a day after Swiss pharmaceutical company Roche announced that it was abandoning its bid for U.S. biotech firm Illumina.
