IoT業界のM&A動向

IoT業界では技術開発やソリューションサービス提供での協業などを目的として活発にM&Aが行われています。IoT技術・サービスの開発を推進しているのはベンチャー企業・スタートアップ企業が多く、大手中堅企業が技術・人材の獲得やオープンイノベーションを目的としてそうした企業を買収・子会社化するという構図が典型的です。

As a sales side, joining a major group will stabilize the management base and proceed with technology and service development to the next stage.

子会社化・関連会社化しない範囲でIoT企業の株式を取得して協力関係を構築するケース（資本業務提携）が多いのも、IoT産業関連のM&Aの特徴です。売り手側としては資金の調達や相手企業の経営資源の活用により事業成長を加速することができ、買い手側としてはリスクを抑えつつ（段階的に）協業を進めることができるのがメリットと言えます。

IoTの用途は産業から生活まで多岐にわたることから、以下のような多様な業種の組み合わせでM&Aが行われています。

In addition, there are many investments in IoT ventures by funds.

IoT企業のM&Aを成功させるポイント

Points for both the selling side and the acquisition side

相性のよい相手を積極的に探す

M&Aの成否は売り手企業と買い手企業の相性（統合により生じるシナジーの大きさ、経営方針・組織文化・ITシステムの親和性など）によるところが大きく、相手企業とのマッチングが重要なポイントとなります。

近年ではM&Aマッチングサイトなどが普及したことにより、幅広い候補のなかから有望な相手企業を探したり、リアルタイムで売却・買収ニーズをチェックしたりすることが容易になりました。そうしたサービスを利用して相性のよい相手を積極的に探し出すことが、M&Aを成功に導く大きな鍵です。

技術の権利関係をチェックする

製品やサービスに利用している技術や新規開発技術の権利関係（権利の帰属、ライセンス契約の内容など）が、M&Aを機に大きな問題として浮上するケースがあります。

権利関係が不明確だったり、M&Aによる承継や契約の移転・継続が不可能な内容だったりすると、M&A後の事業展開に大きな支障を来したり、第三者とのトラブルが発生してその対処のために過大なコストがかかったりする恐れがあります。

This is a great risk for the buyer, and it is not another person's affair for the seller integrated into the buyer.The magnitude of the risk can also be a factor in reducing the transfer price.It is necessary to check in detail about the rights of the technology, and carefully consider and discuss the response if there are any problems.

人材流出・モチベーション低下に注意する

M&Aによる職場環境・労働条件などの変化が人材流出やモチベーション低下を引き起こす例が少なくありません。IoT開発事業においては人材力が主要な経営資源のひとつであり、キーパーソンの流出や人材の大量流出などが起これば致命的なダメージにつながる恐れがあります。

It is necessary to pay attention to human resources -related issues on both the seller and the buyer, and to consider and discuss sufficiently from the negotiations.

Points for the selling side

売却を視野に入れて事業を展開する

The option of selling a company / business is one of the basic strategies for business growth, and for entrepreneurs, it is also a way to collect investment and expand the next development.

By developing a business with the option of selling in the medium to long term, it is more likely to be sold to powerful buyers in good conditions.

競業避止義務に留意する

事業の一部を切り離して譲渡する売り手企業や、M&Aを機に会社を離れる経営者・役員などに対しては、M&A契約で競業避止義務（一定の範囲・期間において売却対象と競合する事業を行うことを禁じる取り決め）が課されるのが一般的です。

競業避止義務の対象範囲・期間によってはM&A以降の事業展開の大きな足かせとなる可能性があるため、買い手側と十分に協議して落としどころを探る必要があります。

会社売却のメリット・デメリット 相場や事例、従業員の処遇も解説

The method of selling the company, the flow of procedures, the calculation method of the market price, the difference between the transfer of shares and the business transfer will be explained in an easy -to -understand manner.It also explains the impact of the company's sale on employees and managers.It is a must -see for managers who want to sell the company.What is the sale of the table of contents?company […]

summary

IoT業界は市場拡大が大いに期待できる分野であり、オープンイノベーションなどの観点からM&Aが盛んに行われています。IoT企業にとってM&Aは基本的な事業戦略のひとつと言え、今後ますます活発に利用されていくものと予想されます。
