Grateful to Peter Vanham and Fortune for the discussion on all things Generative AI. We have not yet reached the tipping point, there is a long way to go before Gen AI impacts everything we do. Bain & Company is helping clients across all industries understand and implement Gen AI into their organizations, and demand continues to increase. We’re excited to help shape this future and reinvent industries with our partners OpenAI and Microsoft. #atBain #GenerativeAI #GenAI

The main peculiarities of tech is cross border trasversality as client today is becoming similar despite geographies - The AI dedicated to immediate translation is including both language and cultural key aspects to structure offer and approach to each geographies without boundaries. 🤓This means that AI will provide the guidelines to structure services and products to a specific market accordingly to the local requirements and purchaising power. ✅WHICH CONSEQUENCES FOR GP’s - Due to the transversality of AI, Funds and portfolio’s companies are no longer looking for geographical areas, but rather for the best technologies - Different models will emerge including the investment models of the GP’s community as the LP’s base will have an easy access to opportunities in different 🌏 geographies making comparisons to find the right alignements among 🥇returns, 🍀domestic + international impacts, ☀️market perspectives ✅RISKS due to INTL competition and break through innovations in SEGMENTATION STRATEGIES - Competition is more intense and can come from anywhere as markets are more and more visible, sizable and globalized in terms of clients expectations and purchaising power; - Small structures could be challenged as the AI driven technologies requires increasing capex to stay ahead of competition . ✌️Thank you to the team of Leaders League GROUPE FICADE Alexandra Leonhart for organizing such insightful event and for the invite . #AI #IA #eutech #indiatech #frenchtech #eic #europe #india #france #francedigitale #privatequityinvestments #vcinvestments #innovation #crossborder4crossfertilization

According to the Wavestone 2024 Data and AI Executive Survey: - 48.1% of surveyed executives believe they work in a data-driven organization, but -77.6% of respondents believe the biggest obstacle to becoming data-driven is related to people/culture of the organization. On a mildly related note, I finished Malcolm Gladwell's new book, Revenge of the Tipping Point, last week. I am going to try to pull some analysis together from these two sources next week.

I recently read an insightful article in Les Echos, featuring an in-depth analysis of the asset management industry by Boston Consulting Group (BCG). Despite a robust 12% recovery last year, with assets under management soaring to an impressive $118.7 trillion, the industry faces a paradox: earnings are still declining. Even with the surge in total managed assets, asset managers experienced only a marginal revenue increase of 0.2%, while costs rose by 4.3%, resulting in an over 8% drop in profits. This profitability squeeze underscores a significant industry challenge. BCG proposes that embracing artificial intelligence is crucial for the industry's future. AI can boost productivity, personalize offerings, and foster the development of private assets. I wholeheartedly agree. Adopting AI in asset management is more than just a technological upgrade; it is a strategic imperative. By leveraging AI, firms can better navigate revenue pressures and rising costs, offering tailored and innovative solutions that could redefine profitability. #AssetManagement #Finance #ArtificialIntelligence

With GenAI coding will still be relevant, but syntax may not. That is why AI holds the potential to boost 10x developers to 100x. #GenAI #coding #softwareengineering

Want to turn strategy into multiple choice rather than an essay question? Read my next posts on the key findings from Hamilton Helmer’s book about building enduring business value  -  7 Powers: The Foundations of Business Strategy https://7powers.com/ I’d recommend every CEO reads it if they want to take strategy seriously. Reed Hastings, co-founder and CEO of Netflix, said: “It will change how you think about business and pull into focus your critical strategy challenges, not to mention their solutions.” 🤔 Many leaders don’t spend enough quality time and effort on strategy 🤔And when they do they don’t really know what strategy is or how to go about building one 🤔 Many leaders just want to get on with the doing or the execution. Operational excellence is essential and hard but it does not assure long-term success and differential returns. Ask yourself the right strategic questions so you can make the right strategic calls. Then all the sweat you put into your operational efficiencies will be worth it. Whether you are running or buying a business, Helmer’s 7 Powers strategy framework will guide you on how to capture enduring business value. Learn from my next posts how Nvidia, Netflix and Pixar have understood the powers of sustainable value capture.👇 - - - - - 📑 Read the article in full below. 👀 Keep your eyes peeled for more info on this topic! https://lnkd.in/d2Wu4jkh #privateequity #venturecapital #PE #VC #RaisingCapital #strategy #strategicthinking #valuecreation

Bringing people along for the journey is a prominent part of leading organizations seeing their AI implementations maximize value. When leading companies undertake tech transformations, they need to focus two-thirds of their effort and resources on people-related capabilities and split the other third between technology and algorithms.   Here's Nick Smaling and I’s short take on AI transformation in Europe, after having joined #AI Transformation Forums’ event earlier this month to discuss with business leaders in the Netherlands, how they can invest strategically in a few high-priority opportunities to scale and maximize AI’s value.
