Week In Review:
April 18, 2025
On The Ground
We're expecting an acceleration in M&A as Q2 and Q3 unfold - some mergers of equals, some fire sales, and some successful exits. Regardless of outcome, expect leadership shakeups in the combined entities, and high quality talent considering their next chapter. This is an excellent time for opportunistic hiring.
