Adam Phipps is a 451 Research Product Specialist with a background as Product Manager for 451 Research's M&A KnowledgeBase (MAKB). During this time he helped coordinate the product launch of MAKB, which was followed by more than a decade of classifying M&A data, driving sales of the database and producing the firm's M&A League Table.
Adam enjoyed jockeying the Dot-com bubble boom in various data wrangling and editorial roles, including that of Chief Ontologist at Internet search vendor LookSmart, Associate Editor for B2B-journal Futuredex Magazine, and researcher for Jupiter Media Metrix. He spent his childhood in Europe, Asia and America – including two years living on Okinawa, Japan, where he experienced some of the most intense typhoons ever recorded. This left a lasting impression, as Adam continues to enjoy rapidly changing weather living in the Pacific Northwest and cooking dishes such as do-it-yourself Ramen and Dashi.
As the RSA Conference winds down and San Francisco hotel prices finally fall back to pre-Super Bowl rates, it's an opportune time to take a look at who's moving up the infosec financial adviser league table.
The objective of the Tech M&A Banking Review is to help buyers and sellers select the most appropriate financial advisers for transactions they may be considering. Companies can use the report to narrow down advisers based on the number or dollar value of deals advised or on the basis of advisers' experience in specific technology segments. The report draws on data from 451 Research's M&A KnowledgeBase, a transactions database that focuses exclusively on the IT and communications sectors. The KnowledgeBase tracks more than 45,000 deals that are searchable by over 650 technology segments, enabling industry professionals to identify advisers that have worked on comparable transactions in those sectors. Additionally, it provides analysis of important enterprise IT deals and offers proprietary estimates of undisclosed values for key transactions.
