I think this version is more complete (at least, it includes the most recent acquisitions): <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitions_by_Alphabet" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitio...</a><p>Some other lists on Wikipedia include:<p>Microsoft: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitions_by_Microsoft" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitio...</a><p>Apple: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitions_by_Apple" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitio...</a><p>Facebook: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitions_by_Facebook" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitio...</a><p>Amazon (no pretty table): <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitions_by_Amazon" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mergers_and_acquisitio...</a>
Pro-tip: After a six month blackout period, acquisitions are eligible for awards in the Google Vulnerability Rewards Program.<p><a href="https://www.google.com/about/appsecurity/reward-program/" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.com/about/appsecurity/reward-program/</a>
I'm surprised that only two surprised me:<p>HTC mobile (I assumed an HTC phone is an HTC phone)<p>Boston dynamics (I saw this as a DoD thing)<p>And I think a lot of people (though maybe not here) may not know about Nest and Waze. I've heard people being surprised about it, though I don't know if they made it obvious by now because I don't use either.
Didn't know Flutter was from acquisition: <a href="https://acquiredby.co/google-acquisitions/flutter/2724/" rel="nofollow">https://acquiredby.co/google-acquisitions/flutter/2724/</a>
Interesting, although not surprising to see how large powerful companies keep buying up other tech companies and possible competition early on and expand that way.
I wish people were more open about their acquisition prices. An entire generation of entrepreneurs could be inspired if only they could see the potential upsides of doing a startup.
