Tech M&A

Law Firm in the Netherlands specialised in Tech M&A

Tech M&A has emerged as a distinct field within the broader landscape of mergers and acquisitions (M&A). This requires specialised knowledge and expertise to navigate the unique complexities and new challenges it creates. Unlike traditional M&A, Tech M&A centres around intangible assets like intellectual property, data and software.

The rapid evolution of technology adds a layer of complexity to Tech M&A transactions. It is important to guideline clients through complex regulations and topics, such as the NIS Directive, the Digital Markets Act, the European AI Act and ESG concerns around the use of AI and data privacy. These topics are crucial components of due diligence, directly influencing deal structures and timelines. In addition, valuation in Tech M&A demands a detailed assessment of intellectual property, technology, market potential, and future growth prospects. Buyers must assess not just the current value of a technology but also its long-term scalability and relevance in an evolving market.

Our Tech M&A areas of expertise

Within Tech M&A we offer tailored services specific to technology-driven transactions, ensuring our clients can confidently navigate the dynamic environment of Tech M&A. With successful transactions across sectors including AI, FinTech, and SaaS, we ensure our clients maximize the value of their acquisitions while staying ahead of emerging risks.
