The Exit Factor: Why M&A is on the rise in healthtech

Forget IPOs, Europe’s healthtech founders are finding their happily-ever-after in M&A. 

Corporates want fresh tech, investors want liquidity, and the cheques are getting bigger. 

By mid-2025 healthcare deal value had soared 87% to €31.8 billion, even as deal count slid 8% according to Nelson Advisors. In the UK, 168 healthtech exits landed by the end of 2024 against just 61 failures. Exits are no longer plan B, they are the headline act.
