Private equity firms are increasingly turning to data and AI to transform how they underwrite, monitor, and improve portfolio companies. In this session, Ariel Garcia will share how his firm has built a proprietary data and AI platform that connects directly to the core systems of each of their 12 portfolio companies to standardize analytics, track performance, and prioritize operating partner deployment. Delegates will learn how to:
• Replace episodic analysis with an always-on, tech-enabled model for value creation
• Design a PE-specific data & AI platform that connects to core systems and continually surfaces value-creation opportunities
• Structure operating partner and data/AI teams to execute a systematic transformation playbook
• Use predictive models and ongoing analytics to monitor portfolio performance, spot deviations early, and dynamically allocate operating partner resources
