If Financing is Marriage, is M&A Death?

Not a week goes by where I don’t get an email that goes like this: “I wanted to reconnect, as I've recently left [the company that bought my startup].  Long story, but suffice it to say their executives and I did not share the same vision for the future.” Let’s face it, although there have been some smashing successes, more often than not, Mergers & Acquisitions fail.  If you didn’t know any better, you’d think that selling your company amounted to a kiss of death, when it ought to be closer to a rebirth and the start of something… better.  Indeed, while raising money from investors feels like marriage, M&A sure feels like death.
