A SPACtacular Tech Issue

The Spring 2021 edition of Middle Market Growth spotlights trends in the technology sector, from SPACs to Canadian tech M&A.

A SPACtacular Tech Issue

SPACs have become a formidable force in the M&A market by providing another path to exit for middle-market business owners and investors, and are especially valuable to small tech businesses not ready to face the demands of an IPO. Yet recent regulatory scrutiny, concerns about alignment among LPs, and other challenges are calling the future of SPACs into question. This edition’s cover story looks at how SPACs evolved and what comes next.

The Spring issue also explores how the competitiveness of the domestic M&A market is driving investors to look beyond the U.S. for deals in the tech sector—and some think they’ve found it just north of the border.

The line between technology and everything else is rapidly blurring as tech-enabled solutions become more integral to running a company and closing a deal. The latest edition of MMG analyzes trends in the technology sector, and what middle-market companies and investors are doing to take advantage of them.
