No Big Mergers for eBay Yet!
Mergers between big internet companies are unlikely in the short term because of difficulties combining brands, says Meg Whitman, Ebay chief executive.
However, online conglomerates operating under different brand names could eventually emerge, she said.
Ms Whitman said Ebay, whose purchase of Skype was the biggest internet deal last year, would continue to look at acquisitions, though mainly of smaller technology companies.
âI think multi-brand, full-service internet companies are an opportunity,â? she told the Financial Times.
Ms Whitmanâs comments come at a time of heightened speculation on Wall Street about the possibility of mergers between the internet giants.
