Private equity’s value creation equation is changing. With returns increasingly dependent on what sponsors can build inside portfolio companies, AI is emerging as a practical lever for accelerating revenue growth, improving pricing and productivity, lowering cost to serve, and strengthening working capital. But the opportunity is no longer simply about adopting AI. The real differentiator is turning it into measurable EBITDA impact at scale.

From building AI into the value creation plan to scaling proven use cases across the portfolio and demonstrating results at exit, the piece examines what it takes to make AI a true value creation engine.
