M&A advice Highgate in 2025 🚀

The year 2025 was a record year for Highgate Law & Tax not only in terms of revenue and profit, but also in terms of mandates and M&A activities.

👉 In March 2025, we organized the largest Slovak M&A conference for business owners(https://lnkd.in/dw7geQYZ), also with the participation and support of KPMG in Slovakia.

👉 As part of our 🎙️Highgate Talks podcasts and media appearances, we’ve talked about a number of important topics related to selling a business, including:
▪️ how to maximize the value of a business before selling with Karol Balco, FCCA, MRICS Balco(https://lnkd.in/d9HfGT3h)
▪️ on how best to sell a company in the Slovak market and how the sales process works with Miroslav Talian, FCCA(https://lnkd.in/dd9NgXbZ)
▪️ on how to treat relationships between partners in a company so that they are not an obstacle to a future sale(https://lnkd.in/dNaUKmcv)
▪️ on the most common mistakes Slovak owners make when selling a company(https://lnkd.in/dZFDbXpf)

👉 From our most interesting M&A transactions of 2025 I choose:
▪️ tax and legal transaction advisory for BONARD on the entry of private equity investor Spire Capital (more about the transaction here: https://lnkd.in/dYhcr4em)

▪️ tax and legal transactional advice to the founders of Photoneo, now part of Zebra Technologies, in connection with the structuring of the sale of part of the business to Zebra Technologies (more here: https://lnkd.in/dZydk-uz)

➡️ Our key advantage on the M&A advisors market is legal and tax(Peter Varga) handling of transactions under one roof and a well-functioning team – including Lukáš Lomenčík, Tatiana Malecká, Dominika Fedáková and Alexandra Fujeríková.

Stay tuned for 2026.
