CMS advises Bidzi on UAE launch, bringing digital M&A solutions to SMEs

CMS has advised Bidzi, a pioneering digital platform offering an all-in-one M&A solution, on the launch of its innovative platform in the UAE. Designed to streamline and secure the M&A process, the platform is positioned to transform the landscape for SMEs by addressing significant gaps in traditional M&A services.

With the UAE’s SME sector expected to reach 1 million SMEs by 2030, Bidzi’s entry is crucial to meet growing demand for M&A support. The platform provides end-to-end solutions, including business valuations, marketing, buyer matching, due diligence, legal support and secure closings facilitated through trusted escrow services. By consolidating these services, Bidzi addresses common challenges in the M&A process such as high costs and fragmented service models, offering SMEs a streamlined and cost-effective alternative.

Commenting on the launch, Patrik Daintry, Corporate partner at CMS Dubai, said: “We’re incredibly proud to support Bidzi, a valued member of our equIP programme, as they enter the UAE market, bringing an accessible and much-needed M&A solution to the SME market. Bidzi’s platform is poised to fill significant gaps in the traditional M&A ecosystem, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with Bidzi as they transform the M&A landscape and embark on the next stage of their journey.”

The CMS team was led by partner Patrik Daintry, with support from Hanna Uhlin, Josh Cosoff and Virginia Sanchez-Eguibar.
