Megatrends – drivers of the European M&A market


For the third time in this century, the M&A market has come under considerable pressure due to what is currently a multiple, interdependent crisis. However, some M&A will continue to have enormous relevance and this is fuelled by twelve megatrends.

Five megatrends will attract the largest share of future capital:

  1. Connectivity
  2. Health
  3. Security
  4. New-ecology
  5. Mobility

Digital transformation will continue to expand its role as a key driver of these five megatrends.
