AI-Native Private Equity: How AI Is Reshaping Returns, Workflows and Team Composition

​PE firms have invested heavily in AI tools over the past few years without always seeing expected returns.

​Despite this, it is increasingly clear that Generative AI will fundamentally change private equity as adoption accelerates.

​The question many partners are now grappling with is this: how will AI reshape headcount, the skills required and deal economics, and what do funds need to change to remain competitive?

​This is a curated, confidential session on extracting value from Generative AI across PE investment and portfolio workflows, and preparing for the transition to an AI-native operating model. We will also consider the legal, regulatory and strategic implications of wider adoption.

​Who this is for: Managing Partners, CIOs, Heads of Portfolio, Operating Partners and other senior executives at UK mid-market private equity firms. Relevant whether your firm is already using Generative AI or considering how to scale adoption and prepare for an AI-native operating model
