[Oa-italia] Springer in vendita? No dice il CEO di Springer

[Paola Gargiulo]

Per completezza, vi invio notizia della smentita della messa in vendita 
di Springer Science + Business Media comunicata direttamente dal CEO 
durante la conferenza dell'UK Serials Group tenutasi tra il 30 marzo e 1 
aprile 2009.  Derk Haank  ha comunicato che Candover e Cinven stanno 
discutendo l'entrata di  un terzo partner per raccogliere ulteriori 
fondi, e non per essere sostituiti nella proprieta'.

****************************************************************
 Derk Haank, CEO, Springer Science + Business Media, has confirmed that  
the company is not for sale. Speaking at the recently held UK Serials 
Group conference, he did, however, reveal that Springer's private equity 
owners, Candover and Cinven, were in discussions with a third partner to 
raise additional funding. Haank nevertheless emphasised that the third 
party would be in addition to - and not instead of - co-owners Candover 
and Cinven.

speaking at the U.K. Serials Group (UKSG) conference this week in 
Torquay, U.K. The sale was recently reported in The Guardian and 
elsewhere. But it was categorically denied by Haank, who did, however,
