From shifting political environments to macroeconomic uncertainties, the European M&A market has seen several trends that have influenced dealmaking activity in 2025. As we move into the end of the year, what are the challenges and opportunities for corporates looking to Europe?

Our guests discuss key M&A deals in 2025, unpacking the prevalence of outbound M&A activity into the U.S., how corporate development teams should approach European markets and the continued importance of private equity in M&A within the French and U.K. markets.
