Signs of life in the technology M&A market

While overall startup M&A deal volume remains subdued, there are positive signs for founders. In Q2 2023, Europe outpaced the U.S. in tech acquisitions, with 812 compared to 632 in the U.S. However, the U.S. still leads in the number of deals worth over $100 million, accounting for 41% of all such deals in the quarter. Big Tech companies, except Apple, were less active in acquisitions during this period, impacting the industry's M&A landscape. Despite this, the data suggests a more promising outlook for future M&A activity.
