This paper examines how characteristics of acquiring and acquired firms influence the inverted U-shaped relationship between industry relatedness and post-acquisition innovative performance. We test for variations in the tipping point and curvature of the relationship using a relatedness index based on industry co-occurrence of 1,736 acquisitions in the Dutch market.

We test for variations in the tipping point and curvature of the relationship using a relatedness index based on industry co-occurrence of 1,736 acquisitions in the Dutch market.
