"Congratulations to our clients with their win and everyone involved at NautaDutilh", says Dirk Van Gerven, managing partner of NautaDutilh Brussels.
Dirk Van Gerven adds, "Despite the turmoil and uncertainty, the Belgian M&A market remained remarkably resilient in H1 of 2022. In particular, private equity funds were very active to deploy their capital in search for low-capex top quality assets. NautaDutilh advised on a significant number of high-profile private equity deals, such as Bain Capital's acquisition of House of HR, which was voted 'Best Large Cap Private Equity Deal'.
Furthermore, we advise strategic players on their strategic transactions. In this respect, we organised several exits for our longstanding client BAM on the Belgian market of which the sale of BAM Contractors to Stadsbader was named 'Best Mid Cap Corporate Deal'. We also advised leading VC investor Octopus Ventures on the series B funding round of bug bounty platform Intigriti, which was shortlisted for 'Best Venture Capital Deal in Technology'."
