The Top 50 Lower Middle Market Industrials Investors & M&A Advisors [2025]
Industrials remains the most dominant sector in Axial deal flow, representing more than 25% of all deals brought to market…
Good morning, all. As we pack our bags for Texas ahead of Axial’s Dallas Summit this week, all the talk around the energy sector is top of mind. Much is being made of falling energy prices with opinions differing on whether this is fundamentally changing the M&A environment or if we’re simply at the beginning of yet another cycle. Either way, we’re excited to hear what some of the dealmakers gathering this week in Dallas have to say about activity in the region.
In other news, individual investors are increasingly being courted by larger and larger private equity funds.
