The Deal of the Year Award is the MNN corporate development award recognising successful execution of a strategy, and/or realisation of value, from a significant transaction.

We are focusing on ‘company-making' asset deals, or unions, and taking into account the often variable nature of transactions and the range of factors contributing to successful outcomes.

We'll consider how deals are funded; the impact on balance sheets and how transactions leave companies in terms of their capacity to deliver value to shareholders through share price growth and/or dividends; and prices paid relative to comparable sector transactions.

Last year's winner was IGO for its transformational lithium deal with Tianqi Lithium.

It only takes a minute to fill out the nomination form, which can be found here.

You have until next Thursday, June 30 to nominate. Finalists will be announced in the first week of July, followed by winners later in the month.
