Commenting on the findings, Miro Parizek, Hampleton’s Principal Partner said: “2016 has seen some exciting—and record-breaking—plays for tech targets. Most notably, Oracle’s acquisition of NetSuite at 11x revenue. We see this move as kicking off more record-level activity for the rest of the year.”
