Questions, answered

M&A Updates: frequently asked questions

What is Athena’s M&A Updates?

It is a curated library of weekly M&A snapshots tracking mergers and acquisitions across India and global markets. Each edition summarises the week’s deals by sector and names the acquiring company, the acquired company and the deal value. The library covers editions from December 2022 to October 2023 and is free to browse.

Which sectors do the snapshots cover?

The editions recur across sectors such as Medical Devices, IT Services, Hospitals, Biotechnology, Pharmaceuticals and Logistics, alongside other industries active in a given week. Coverage reflects where deal activity concentrated, so the exact sectors vary from one edition to the next.

How often is the library updated?

The snapshots were published weekly, and this collection is an archive of editions from December 2022 to October 2023. We are not adding new editions at present. To discuss current deal activity in your sector, speak to our leadership advisory team.

Does the tracker cover India or global deals?

Both. Each edition captures Indian transactions alongside notable global deals, so you can see domestic consolidation and cross-border activity in a single view.

How does M&A activity connect to executive search?

Every acquisition reshapes an organisation. Boards move quickly to appoint integration leaders, align CXO teams and retain the people who hold the deal’s value. Tracking who is acquiring whom, sector by sector, is an early signal of where the next leadership mandates will emerge, and it is precisely where Athena’s retained search and leadership advisory add value.
