Eight Advisory grows its Transaction Services practice in the Benelux and promotes Joris Peers to Partner

With over 12 years of experience in financial and M&A advisory, Joris Peers has supported private equity and corporate clients on midsize to large transactions across sectors such as Software, Healthcare, Retail & Consumer, and Industrial Products. Based in Brussels, he began his career in 2013 at a Big4 firm and joined Eight Advisory in 2022, where he has played a key role in the growth of the Transaction Services and Belgian teams.  

As Partner, he will help lead and expand Eight Advisory’s Transaction Services offering in the Benelux region. 

Joris Peers, Partner, Transaction Services, commented: 

“This next chapter at Eight Advisory is an exciting opportunity to continue developing our Transaction Services practice in the Benelux region. I’m proud of what the team has achieved so far and look forward to building on it together. For me, it’s all about making a tangible impact through our work.”

Philippe Fimmers, Managing Partner, Benelux, concluded: 

“The growth we’re seeing in our region, driven by private equity buy-and-build strategies, consolidation in fragmented sectors and growth in specific sectors, reflects both sustained client demand and our consistent performance in a market that remains active despite ongoing uncertainty. Joris’s appointment underscores our decision to continue investing in talented people who combine excellence with an entrepreneurial and collaborative mindset. I’m confident he will continue to play a key role as we continue to strengthen our presence in the Belgian and Benelux market at large.”
