The Top 50 Lower Middle Market Technology Investors & M&A Advisors [2025]
Technology remains a steady presence in the lower middle market, representing ~13% of deals brought to market via Axial over…
Axial is excited to release the 2023 Axial Advisor 100! This report reflects a quest we took on in order to identify, verify, and publicly acknowledge the most highly regarded lower middle market sell-side M&A advisors.
To assemble the Axial Advisor 100, we surveyed the Axial buyside membership, requesting that they name both the investment banks and sell-side M&A advisors whom they trust and respect most across three categories:
» Individual Deal Quality
» Overall Deal Volume
» Process Effectiveness
The Axial Advisor 100 accommodates lower middle market investment banks of all sizes, industry specializations, and geographies.
Importantly, only 70% of the firms that earned a spot in the Advisor 100 are Axial members; the remaining 30% are non-members whose reputation and achievements in the market have collectively earned them their spot on the list.
Congratulations to these 100 firms!
