Oh, I'm interested in the business decision behind that. For example why didn't they just buy (not acquire) the slack product. What were the reasons to host it in-house and manage it themselves.

They got the team behind it, who now work on other parts of Dropobox
Right by why maintain the chat app? Why not just buy slack.
Buying Slack requires Slack to be interested in selling themselves.

You're assuming:
* that Slack was for sale too
* that Dropbox wanted the app, rather than the people who made the app
Slack is out for a lot of groups that don't particularly want internal, private communications routed through a third-party.

I don't understand why you are being downvoted for legitimate questions.
