Building AI Capabilities Into Portfolio Companies at Apollo
The private equity firm is working hard to bring the powers of artificial intelligence to the companies it has invested in.
Companies across a wide range of industries are increasingly focused on using artificial intelligence to gain a competitive edge and unlock productivity gains. Given the transformational potential of the technology, it’s not surprising that private equity investors are also seeking to harness the power of AI in their portfolios.
Apollo Global Management is one firm that is aggressively attempting to build AI capabilities in its portfolio companies. It has a diversified asset management business primarily focused on credit, but private equity remains a significant strategy for the firm. That business involves buying, building, and selling companies, capturing value for its investors each step of the way. While many companies have struggled to create economic value with AI, Apollo is applying disciplined investing and capability-building strategies to make its funds’ portfolio companies more competitive and more valuable.
