A handful of transformative transactions lifted 2025 merger and acquisitions totals, but dealmakers largely remained disciplined, prioritizing data-driven growth and digital platforms.
The total transaction value of medical technology (medtech) dealmaking in 2025 surged to $92.8 billion – the highest level in more than a decade – but overall activity remained muted, with just 46 deals announced through Nov. 30, according to PwC’s “US Deals 2026 outlook” report.
