DealMakers AFRICA is proud to host, for the first time in Lagos, Nigeria, the Mergers & Acquisition Awards for 2023 to celebrate the achievements of the advisory firms in West and East Africa says Marylou Greig the boss of CE Gleason Publications (Pty) Ltd and Editor-In-Chief of DealMakers AFRICA
According to Marylou, DealMakers AFRICA was first launched in 2008 and records mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance activities such as equity raising, listings, debt financing and private equity transactions across Africa (excluding South Africa). Transactions are recorded quarterly and where possible lists as many, if not all, the firms involved in advising parties to those transactions. Advisory firms are ranked by deal value and by deal flow and transactions recorded are country specific.
The DealMakers AFRICA Annual Awards was launched as a standalone event in Nairobi
in March 2019 sponsored by Ansarada and Brunswick. In addition to recognizing
the top Financial and Legal Advisers for both regions, the top Deal of the Year
and Private Equity Deal of the Year are awarded for West and East Africa. A new
award, sponsored by PSG Capital, recognizes the Top DealMaker of the Year (West
Africa) for the year under review, whose deal activity and characteristics are
noteworthy and who has made a significant contribution to the region or
industry.
The primary aim of DealMakers AFRICA is to build close relationships with advisory firms,
initially in East and West Africa but expanding to North and Southern Africa in
due course. We feel that the purpose of establishing such ties will ensure that
DealMakers AFRICA develops into a
relevant publication with a better understanding of the M&A space in these
areas but also to assist us in shaping bespoke league tables and awards that
will fully reflect the type of work undertaken by the local advisory firms.
The Managing Director of TSM Network, UK and

strategic partner for the DealMakers Africa Awards noted that top special of
