May 2025 M&A Surge: Strategic Consolidation Reshapes Tech Landscape 

May 2025 has emerged as a pivotal month in tech sector consolidation, with over 60 M&A transactions logged across cybersecurity, cloud, and infrastructure segments. 
Leading the headlines is Google’s $32 billion acquisition of Wiz, marking one of the largest cybersecurity deals ever recorded. This move underscores the escalating value placed on cloud security as enterprises migrate to distributed systems. 
Managed Service Providers (MSPs) are another hotbed of activity. M&A in the MSP space is projected to spike 45% this year, driven by demand for platform breadth, operational efficiency, and geographical reach. The $910 million merger between Converge Technology and Mainline Information exemplifies how private equity is powering a new wave of MSP transformation. 
In infrastructure, SolarWinds was acquired by Turn/River Capital for $4.4 billion, reflecting confidence in tools that support observability across complex multicloud setups. 
For tech providers and marketers alike, this trend signals a clear shift: platform-based value propositions are winning. Enterprises want fewer vendors, deeper integrations, and scalable service layers. The takeaway for growing tech firms? Position your offering as part of the bigger picture—something that can plug into, power, or unify a broader digital ecosystem.
