Health and Education (HE)

The ageing population and increased demand for health products and services, both in the UK and internationally, are creating great opportunities for businesses in the health sector.

Societal and economic changes combined with technological advancements and reforms have resulted in both significant opportunities and some challenges. Consolidation, pressures on healthcare systems, the drive for more efficiencies and improved patient experiences, and new technologies are just some of the drivers of significant M&A activity.

We can help businesses and business owners to consider the full range of options to achieve both personal and business objectives. We are passionate about the sector and understand the importance of such decisions, and their wider impact on the full range of stakeholders.

Our Healthcare Advisory team (including M&A specialists and ex-healthcare advisory professionals) has extensive experience across the whole sector embracing health and social care services, medical diagnostics and devices, life sciences, bioscience and pharmaceutical services and products.
