[2]Kenexa’s stock is up about 40% early today on news IBM’s buying the company [3] for about $1.3 billion.
IBM says it’s buying Kenexa to bolster “social business initiatives.” IBM tells me that Rudy Karsan [4], the well-regarded founder and CEO of Kenexa, will stay with the new company.
Kenexa has a mix of products and services, from RPO to applicant tracking systems (through its BrassRing [5] product).
