After several weeks of compiling data on all SF transactions closed in###-###-#### note: some deals may be missing or undisclosed due to confidentiality), we are excited to share this initial overview.
Key Highlights:
- 100+ SF acquisitions recorded worldwide – a new all-time record!
- Europe is now “on par” with North America.
- a wave of international exits in Europe and Latin America.
2025 has been a landmark year for SF globally, with strong growth, record deals, and outstanding exits. We expect 2026 to be even more dynamic, particularly in Asia and Latin America.
