This episode of Talking CEE is hosted by Horea Popescu (Head of CEE Corporate/M&A) who is joined by Helen Rodwell (Managing Partner, Prague and Bratislava), Eva Talmacsi (Partner and Co-head of CEE TMT) and Slawomir Czerwinski (Partner, Corporate, Poland) to discuss recent trends in M&A and the outlook for the CEE investment scene. Our panel looks at some of the findings from our Emerging Europe M&A report launched earlier in the year, with particular emphasis on:

• The abundance of high-value and high-profile deals in e-commerce
• The increase in IPOs and dual-track processes in CEE
• Activity in Telecoms and IT, which was the busiest sector on the M&A side in 2020
• The buzz in renewables with several transactions forecast to take place in the next few months
