Details

Whoever wants to subsist in international competition, must develop new markets, enlarge the product offering and expand market shares. The acquisition of a company or the merger of two competitors may be an appropriate growth strategy. Despite the big shifts in political tectonic plates (e.g. Brexit), M&A markets managed to hold up well. Dealmakers seem to be adjusting to a “new normal” of European M&A activity and are optimistic for 2019.

Since 2013 the M&A conference has been considered to be one of the most important platforms in continental Europe for yearly about 250 selected M&A decision makers from Germany and Europe.
