Match partially exact records from 2 tables

Hi, 

I have two tables, one with parent company names and other with pipeline values that contains parent company and branches. I want to join them in such a way that company name is the primary key and it should pull the branches name from table 2 . Note, how Google is present in Table 2 and should not be included in the join

 

Table 1

Comapny Name
Qualcomm 
Adobe
Netflix

 

Table 2  

Company Name QuarterPipeline Value 
AdobeFY21 Q1$23 
Adobe EMEARFY21 Q2$1 
Adobe NYCFY21 Q3$56 
Netflix IndiaFY21 Q2$20 
Qualcomm APJC FY21 Q3$30 
GoogleFY22 Q1$50

@saipawar You can use a Merge query in Power Query Editor and use the Fuzzy matching criteria. Or, I built a DAX version as well: Fuzzy - Microsoft Power BI Community
