Global technology-focused investment bank Drake Star recently released the Talent Acquisition Software Report, which provides an in-depth analysis of the industry’s year-to-date M&A and funding activity, share price movements and sector valuations, as well as key industry news and emerging trends.

According to the report, M&A activity in the talent acquisition software industry remained strong in 2022 despite economic concerns, driven by product expansions, private equity investment, and consolidations.
