Google’s Nest acquisition is now official, met with no opposition
Nest CEO Tony Fadell, Google’s Larry Page, and Nest VP of Engineering Matt Rogers
In a regulatory filing from this morning, Google announced that their $3.2 billion dollar acquisition of Nest is now official. We didn’t expect they’d be met with with much resistance — nothing like the AT&T/T-Mobile merger from ___ — especially given both the FTC and Department of Justice gave their blessing on the marriage last week.
With Nest CEO Tony Fadell reporting directly to Google’s Larry Page, work can finally begin. Here’s to a bright new Android@Home future and whatever else the guys at Nest/Google can dream up.
