Spanish term or phrase: una adquisicón de la sociedad
This sentence talks about the intergration (or takeover) of one company by another, but i am not sure what the last phrase means to say?
Does it first plan to offer the idea to the general public or just its 'shareholders'?
If it help, this relates to a Spanish (EU) based company.
