Article1: 
1. Vertical integration refers to an economic strategy that helps organisations to streamline their operations through obtaining direct ownership of its different stages of the production process (Zhu et al., 2019). It is also referred to as the merger of two or more companies where one's output or service is required by another company's final product and services. 
Salesforce being an American cloud-based Software Company has a large customer base and it's popular for software. By acquiring Slack which is also a software company, they are trying to increase its production base for tools that help clients in remote working services. This will make the company independently public traded and not be much dependent on others for their final software tools. 
2. The merger of salesforce and Slack will have a positive impact on the salesforce’s customers. It is because the customers will be able to get both the services of the companies at one place in the merged entity. Moreover, the merger can also decrease the production cost that will decrease the services charge and increase customer's number. 
This merger will also positively impact the stockholder’s as the company will be able to increase its profit in the market. Lower cost of production will also lower the price and thus increase the sales and profit. 
However, the merger will have a negative impact on the rivals as the merged entity will be able to capture more market share. Moreover increased human and capital resources will tend to boost the power of Salesforce.
