In this exclusive insight report, we examine the state of M&A activity in the media sector as a whole and by sub-sector.
While activity has remained relatively strong in the sector, it has also been somewhat sluggish, as dealmakers contend with issues such as geopolitical uncertainty and economic upheaval. Private equity activity, for example, has been particularly slow to recover.
However, the sector’s underlying fundamentals are strong and there are several indications that media M&A activity could experience a genuine resurgence during 2025.
In our in-depth examination of media sector M&A, we explore how sub-sectors ranging from digital media and content creation to publishing and broadcasting are setting the stage for a wave of activity in 2025.
We also take a look at:
- The state of activity so far in 2024
- The headwinds that have limited dealmaking
- How traditional media formats are using M&A to adapt to a digital world
- How private equity and international buyers could drive M&A
- The emerging risks that buyers should look out for
