Marvell Technology in Advanced Talks to Acquire Lumentum Holdings
Marvell Technology is reportedly in advanced talks to acquire Lumentum Holdings, a data-center optics and photonics company valued at about $8.3 billion. The potential deal, possibly announced next week, aims to strengthen Marvell's position in optical technologies critical for AI infrastructure by simplifying its supply chain and enhancing data movement capabilities. Both companies have an existing supplier relationship, and the acquisition would be among the largest in technology and telecommunications. Discussions remain private, with no final agreement yet.
