A couple of weeks ago, I participated in a survey conducted by a consultant on mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in the local healthcare scene. The scope reveals at least on my part the complexity of the process and the need to seek advice on such matters even for seasoned health entrepreneurs.
According to a 2011 KPMG report, Africa’s M&A value for disclosed deals then was at about $35 billion. No doubt this has risen by now.
