Midaxo Expands Cloud-Native M&A Platform to Support All Forms of Corporate Dealmaking

Corporate development teams can now find, evaluate, and deliver deal value faster on the first purpose-built Corporate Development Cloud

BOSTON, March 29, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Midaxo, provider of the leading software platform for corporate dealmaking, today announced the launch of the new Midaxo Corporate Development Cloud. After a decade as the leading software solution for companies managing their M&A activity, Midaxo now supports the entire global corporate development team across all deal types to enable them to find, evaluate, and deliver deal value faster and more efficiently than ever before. Built on a foundation of AI, machine learning (ML), and process automation, the Midaxo Corporate Development Cloud simplifies and accelerates corporate dealmaking processes and provides centralized oversight across all deal pipelines. The new Midaxo platform leverages learnings from over 500 Midaxo customers that have completed more than 5,000 transactions worth in excess of $1 trillion.

“Companies that combine organic and inorganic growth realize the best outcomes when they create repeatable dealmaking processes supported by a cloud-based dealmaking platform. Dealmaking is now a global pursuit and, corporate dealmaking teams that rely on manual processes or legacy tools can’t identify, assess, communicate about, or act on targets with the speed and reliability they need,” said Midaxo CEO Jude McColgan. “The new Midaxo Corporate Development Cloud addresses these challenges by leveraging embedded AI, ML, and process automation to simplify, coordinate, and accelerate the complex day-to-day processes of corporate dealmaking. Our modular design serves as a centralized system of record and enables organizations to choose only the capabilities they need to deliver better results faster when finding, evaluating, or delivering deal value.”

A Modern Platform for Maximizing Deal Outcomes

Midaxo is a comprehensive, end-to-end Corporate Development Cloud solution for dealmaking or it can be configured to transform and accelerate only the specific workflows a company needs for their size, structure, and requirements.

The Midaxo platform offers three vital capabilities:

Pipeline management – Midaxo Pipeline allows teams to find potential acquisition targets more efficiently. Teams can review up to 5x more targets while reducing deal risk. An intuitive interface and the advanced Midaxo Deal Scoring feature allows users to identify, screen, and connect with more deal targets faster. Integrations with internal and external data sources enable users to find and qualify more deal targets, faster.

Evaluation – The Midaxo Buy-Side Virtual Deal Room (VDR) enables teams to evaluate deal targets more effectively during due diligence. It reduces diligence time 50% compared to traditional approaches while providing complete oversight of the process. Teams can easily conduct due diligence on deal targets by requesting documents through the buy-side VDR. Project management tools for the review process reduce omissions and missed opportunities, while creating a persistent document repository for compliance, audits, and post-deal analyses.

Post-deal integration – Midaxo Integration provides the tools teams need to deliver value from their deals faster. The program management functionality, driven by standard or user-defined playbooks, accelerates post-acquisition integrations up to 40%. Project management tools ensure smooth integration of acquisitions with permission-based support for task assignments and advanced reporting.

Key features of the new Midaxo platform

• Purpose-built deal CRM – This industry-leading pipeline management CRM solution is designed for teams tasked with finding deal targets. Workflow automation and advanced data enrichment tools keep teams focused on the best potential deals.
• Insights and automated deal scoring – Midaxo data enrichment features combined with Midaxo Deal Scoring provide focus when managing a deal pipeline. Midaxo integrates with third-party business information sources to enrich the profile for deal targets, while Midaxo Deal Scoring calculates a weighted score for each target to keep users focused on the best opportunities.
• Midaxo Workspaces – Designed for more complex organizations, Workspaces allows a central, corporate team to provision separate, independent, isolated environments for each deal team. The teams within each workspace can maintain their own deal target CRM entries, deals and pipelines. The corporate team retains full visibility across all workspaces for reporting, sharing playbooks, and rolling out best practices.
• Mobile-first app – The mobile app for Apple or Android devices enables dictation of CRM entries after a meeting and, adding photos of whiteboards, recordings of discussions, or whatever form data takes. Take photos or videos of a target’s equipment or facilities and have them instantly added.
