Aurelia Seidlhofer, Mergermarket’s Munich-based senior correspondent for Germany, Austria and Switzerland (DACH), joins Dealcast host Julie-Anna Needham to discuss why Europe’s biggest economy will continue to be a force to reckon with.

• Will increased defence spending help companies in other verticals develop dual-use products and services?
• Will we see more carve-out deals in Germany’s chemicals sector?
• What are the challenges and opportunities for the Mittelstand market, which refers to industry-focussed, innovative, and export-orientated mid-cap companies.

All this and more in this week’s Dealcast.
