Abstract
Today, globalization and technology are developing rapidly. Global competition in the technology industry is intensifying. Corporate mergers and acquisitions have become an important strategy for companies to acquire new technologies, enhance competitiveness and achieve rapid growth. Dell's acquisition of EMC marks one of the major strategic realignments in the industry. This article explores the motivations, challenges and impact of this merger on Dell, EMC and the entire technology industry through an in-depth analysis of the financial data, market performance, strategic changes and results before and after Dell's merger with EMC. The study found that Dell's main purpose of acquiring EMC was to achieve IT transformation, expand the scope of products and services, enhance market competitiveness and achieve business diversification. Although it encountered challenges in cultural integration, technology integration and financial management during the merger and acquisition process, Dell successfully enhanced its leadership position in the cloud computing and data storage market after acquiring EMC and achieved financial growth through effective response strategies. This merger successfully expanded Dell's market share, accelerated its business transformation process, and enhanced the company's competitiveness in the cloud computing and data storage markets.
