In the business landscape, Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) serve as a vital strategy for driving growth and maximising long-term shareholder value by aligning with an organization's overarching objectives. Each facet of M&A has its own unique challenge, and it often takes a diverse team to get the best results on a deal. Deloitte’s M&A business is one of the largest in Australia, advising top tier clients on complex acquisition, merger, divestment and capital market activities. Our team works across a range of sectors including consumer business, financial services, infrastructure, technology, healthcare and real estate.

Technology is key to all M&A transactions and is often the largest source of cost, complexity and effort in separating or integrating organisations. Our Technology M&A team advise and support clients across a wide range of industries in navigating all facets of the M&A lifecycle (transaction/ deal strategy, pre-deal due diligence, as well as integration/separation planning and execution) from a Technology perspective. We help our clients to identify, architect and quantify technology considerations, values and risks during acquisition, integration or separation processes. We also support our clients throughout the end-to-end M&A process from due diligence through to separation or integration.
