  • Which technologies will transform the M&A process the most by 2025?
  • How digitally mature and technologically sophisticated is the M&A, due diligence, and asset marketing process in DACH?
  • How are dealmakers in DACH using technology to overcome challenges?
  • How can technology benefit and advance other areas of M&A in DACH?

What's Inside?

  • 2020 The Current State of M&A in DACH
  • 2025 The Future State of M&A in DACH
