An analysis of the trends, challenges and opportunities in the global life sciences M&A market

This report provides an insight into life sciences M&A deal activity in 2022 and supplements our 2023 global M&A intelligence report, which is now in its ninth edition.

The life sciences sector is broad and captures a number of sub-sectors, including pharmaceutical, medical devices and biotech.

The report focuses on five key themes:

  • Due Diligence (DD)

  • Transaction structures 
  • Trade v Private Equity
