The first quarter of 2016 saw significantly fewer M&A transactions in Poland than the last quarter of 2015, with only 46 deals completed compared to 77 previously. This downturn may have been caused by unfavorable market and political conditions. The largest deal was Bridgepoint Europe's acquisition of Smyk Group for EUR 244 million. Private equity and venture capital funds were highly active, representing 35% of sell-side deals and 15% of buy-side deals. Target companies predominantly came from the IT, media and telecommunications sectors.
The document summarizes M&A activity in Poland during the second quarter of 2015. There were 54 transactions, similar to the previous quarter. Media, telecommunications, and IT companies were popular targets. Notable deals included AGC Automotive acquiring NordGlass, AnaCap acquiring FM Bank PBP, and Cargill acquiring Dossche. PE/VC funds were the most active buyers, making up 20% of deals. Most deals were valued at under PLN 100 million. PZU's acquisition of a 25.3% stake in Alior Bank for EUR 396 million was a significant transaction. Overall, the level of M&A activity in Poland remained high compared to previous periods.

Bioavailability is defined as the rate and extent of absorption of a drug from its dosage form and the amount available at the site of action. It depends on pharmaceutical, patient, and route of administration factors. The objectives of bioavailability studies are to develop new formulations, determine the influence of excipients and other drugs, and control drug product quality. Bioavailability can be assessed using pharmacokinetic methods like plasma concentration-time profiles from single and multiple dose studies, and urinary excretion studies. Key parameters analyzed are Cmax, Tmax, and AUC which indicate rate and extent of absorption. Pharmacodynamic methods like acute pharmacological response and therapeutic response studies can also be used when pharmacokinetic methods are not suitable. In

The age of big data heralded a new understanding of the world in which analyzing the past allows one to predict future behavior. But are humans really soulless piles of numbers ? Data excel at revealing correlation among behaviors, but what about causation? After all, there is a difference between knowing something – what – and understanding it – why. This is where the social sciences – particularly ethnography – become critical, providing us a deep and insightful vision of the why behind the numbers.
The fourth quarter of 2015 saw a record number of 77 M&A deals completed in Poland, up from 66 in the previous quarter. The targets were primarily service sector companies as well as media, IT, and telecom firms. The largest deal was Enea Energy Group's acquisition of LW Bogdanka for EUR 349 million. Private investors remained the main sellers as the succession trend continued in Poland. Overall, 2015 set new records for global M&A activity, though political uncertainty weighed on the Polish stock market in the fourth quarter.
62 M&A transactions took place in Poland, 3 more than the same period the previous year. The largest transaction was PKN Orlen's acquisition of a 37% stake in Czech oil company Unipetrol for approximately EUR 1 billion. Over half of transaction sellers were private investors, indicating ongoing interest in Polish SMEs. Experts expect continued M&A activity in Poland in 2019 supported by low interest rates and economic growth.

In the third quarter of 2022, we noticed a significant decrease in the volume of M&A transactions compared to the second quarter - by approx. 16 pp. However, the second quarter was a record period. 74 transactions recorded in Q3 are therefore still a high result, which in the yoy perspective is approx. 8% higher. The uncertainty caused by the rise in inflation, interest rates and energy commodity prices, as well as the war in Ukraine, did not put the mergers and acquisitions on hold, as was the case at the peak of the pandemic.

The total value of announced European financial services M&A deals in the first half of 2013 was €42.3 billion, a 90% increase from the first half of 2012. This growth was driven by a rise in large deals over €1 billion and government transactions related to banking restructurings in Greece which accounted for two-thirds of the total deal value during the period. Notable deals included the Greek government taking majority control of four large Greek banks through capital investments totaling over €28 billion. Private sector deal values excluding government transactions actually declined slightly year-over-year.

The document provides an overview of listing and initial public offerings (IPOs) in Europe. It discusses the benefits of going public for companies and shareholders. Some key points include:
- FESE represents 36 stock exchanges in Europe that list equities, bonds, and derivatives. About 11,100 companies are listed in Europe, with a total market capitalization of around €13 trillion.
- Between 2013-2019, around 1,500 companies listed in Europe raising a total of €240 billion. Leading sectors for listings include financials, industrials, and consumer services.
- Companies go public to raise funds for growth, finance acquisitions, enhance their reputation, and diversify their investor
- July 2013 saw record levels of investment activity in Europe, driven by large late-stage financings. The largest deal was a €300M round for Dutch company Mobileye.
- Investment levels were up significantly both in terms of deal value and number from the same period last year. Several sectors saw increased investment, including internet, software, and hardware.
- M&A activity remained subdued, with few exits of note for European VC/PE-backed companies over $50M. Corporate buyers have remained disciplined since the last downturn.
- The high levels of investment activity indicate the market has entered a "hype" phase of the cycle, which could lead to inflated valuations and excessive risk
The document provides an overview of listing and initial public offerings (IPOs) in Europe, noting that there are over 11,000 listed companies that have raised over €240 billion collectively. It discusses the main benefits of going public for companies and shareholders, as well as listing requirements and the typical process of an IPO. The majority of listed companies in Europe are small- and medium-sized enterprises, though they make up a smaller portion of the total market capitalization.
As Central and Eastern European economies found the growing inflation crisis in early 2022 a major obstacle, the biggest uncertainty came with the unprovoked Russian attack on Ukraine. The increasingly unfavourable conditions have resulted in a decline in M&A activity, but not everywhere, and not to the same extent.

Quarter after quarter, we will invite local experts in different fields of economy and ask them to present their individual, professional take on the current situation in CEE region, and to share their hopes and expectations. Our goal is to collect a varied array of thoughts and commentaries on the CEE economy that will serve as a kaleidoscopic record of market reality, rather than be a periodic, data-centred analysis. We believe that in this way we can help build a more relatable and engaging platform for dialogue, which will also go beyond the pages of this publication.

Raport roczny - Fuzje i przejęcia w Polsce w roku 2019FORDATA VDR
W 2019 roku (stan na 12 grudnia) miało miejsce 179 transakcji fuzji i przejęć. To o 20 mniej niż w tym samym okresie w roku ubiegłym. Spadek jest wyraźny, choć nie zaskakujący w kontekście globalnego spowolnienia gospodarczego. Na połowę wszystkich sprzedających złożyły się podmioty prywatne (50%), przy czym największym zainteresowaniem inwestorów cieszyły się spółki z branży przemysłowej (25 transakcji) oraz sektor IT/Media/Telcom, który utrzymał pierwszą pozycję w relacji do 2018 roku. Wciąż to właśnie ta branża konsoliduje się najaktywniej.
W trzecim kwartale 2019 roku zaobserwowaliśmy dużo niższy wolumen transakcji fuzji i przejęć niż w analogicznym okresie w ubiegłych latach. Złożyły się na niego zaledwie 33 transakcje (dla porównania 51 w 3 kw. 2018, 42 w 3 kw. 2017).

Wprawdzie nie pobijemy już rekordu z roku 2015 roku (kiedy odnotowano 247 transakcji), jednak trend jest stabilny. Przewidujemy, że do końca roku ilość transakcji może jeszcze wzrosnąć o 10%. Ponad połowę wszystkich sprzedających stanowili przedsiębiorcy prywatni. Zarówno po stronie podmiotów przejmowanych, jak i kupujących, duży udział miały transakcje z sektora Media/IT/Telecom.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

2. Introduction
The first quarter of 2016 was significantly slower than the end of last year in terms of M&A
activity, with 46 transactions reported in comparison to 77 in the last quarter of 2015. This
quarter, however, was similar to the first quarter of 2015 when 50 transactions were
completed. This downturn might have been caused by the unfavourable market and
political conditions. Below we have attached a description of the most considerable deals.

Year 2015 was very busy for Polish mergers and acquisitions market thus positively distinguished Poland among
Central and Eastern Europe countries. After spectacular increase in the last quarter of 2015 with the record number
of 77 closed transactions, the first quarter of 2016 totalled only 46 transactions. It is also a decrease of 8%
compared to Q1 2015 with 50 transactions recorded. Dealogic estimates that the global M&A market fell by 25%
compared to the previous year and EMEA market fell by 19%.
Transactions with value of less than PLN 100 million still dominate on the list (12 transactions) although there are
45% less of them compared to Q4 2015. Among the transactions with disclosed price only 3 exceeded value of EUR
100 million, which is a low result compared to previous quarters. The most popular targets among investors were
companies from the IT / Media / Telecommunications sectors.
In terms of value, the largest transaction on the Polish M&A market in Q1 2016 was undoubtedly sale of shares in
Smyk Group by Empik Media & Fashion to Bridgepoint fund. Value of the transaction amounted to PLN 1.06 billion.
In CEE region the largest transaction was the purchase of Swiss company Syngenta for $43 billion by The China
National Chemical Equipment Corporation (ChemChina).
We observe an increasing involvement of private equity funds and strategic investors especially in the commercial
real estate market. Available data have shown that most of Buyers in Q1 2016 were companies from the financial
services industry (17% of all transactions), while private equity funds and venture capital were dominant on the
Sellers’ side (35% of all transactions).
In 2015 we saw the continuous trend of using Virtual Data Room (VDR) in the transactional processes. Our observa-
tions indicate that the use of VDR has become synonymous with professional approach to executed projects.
This trend will continue in 2016.

In the first quarter of 2016, only 46 M&A transactions have been completed which is a significantly worse
result than in the last quarter of 2015. On the other hand, the beginning of the last year has also been rather
slow, with 50 transactions carried out in the 1Q 2015. If such tendency continues, we should witness a rapid
rise in the number of mergers and acquisitions in the coming quarters.
During the first three months, the majority of targets belonged to the IT, Media and Telecom sectors with
20% share in all M&A transactions. Also private equity and venture capital funds, such as MCI, Bridgepoint,
Innova, were highly active on the market and accounted for 35% sell-side and 15% buy-side transactions.
The largest acquisition, in terms of value, was the purchase of Smyk Group by Coortland Investments, a part of
Bridgepoint Europe private equity fund, from Empik Media & Fashion for a consideration of ca. EUR 244m.
Warsaw Stock Exchange listed FMCG wholesaler, Eurocash Group, remains highly active on the Polish market.
In March 2016, the group has signed a preliminary agreement to purchase 100% shares of EKO Holding. It is
Eurocash’s another large transaction, after completing an acquisition of 50% stake in Firma Rogala (Delikatesy
Centrum franchise holder). Before that, Eurocash Group has also informed that it has signed a preliminary agree-
ment to purchase 100% stake in Polska Dystrybucja Alkoholi (previously Jantoń Dystrybucja).
