Welcome back to the Deal Room on the AmplifyME podcast where this week our Director of Corporate Finance Stephen Barnett unpacks three themes in focus this week:

  • Bill Ackman the famous activist investor has said that he would consider taking Elon Musk's 'X' public. You've heard of a SPAC but what's a SPARC?!

  • The IPO run continues with Birkenstock the German footwear maker about to fetch a valuation of $10.1bn

  • With M&A deals starting to liven up, we take a look at what dealmakers need to do to avoid missing out on the target of $3 trillion in deal volume for the first time since 2013
