Technology & Innovation in M&A: United Kingdom 2026

The data in this report comes from the live, interactive pulse check run during NextGen M&A, London 2026, an invitation-only session that brought together deal teams, advisors, M&A insurance professionals and technologists.

This is an annual report, updated each year to track how technology, and AI in particular, is reshaping how M&A deals get done.
