Raytheon Company (NYSE:RTN) said yesterday that it has wrapped up its buyout of Cambridge, MA-based BBN Technologies for about $350 million. The amount of the purchase was not disclosed when the Waltham, MA-based provider of defense systems first announced the deal last month. Wade put the buyout in perspective and explained what BBN has meant to the development of the Internet and the Boston innovation scene over the past several decades.
