Uncovering Hidden Gems with Yuno AI After engaging with hundreds of analysts, we've identified two major challenges in M&A and PE: 1. Access to Reliable Data 2. Optimizing Research Time Traditionally, PE and M&A partners rely on vast networks.

Our technology is designed to uncover these hidden gems—small to medium-sized companies outside traditional networks but with solid financial performance and growth trajectories. 🔍 How It Works We've leveraged Large Language Models (LLMs) to create detailed descriptions for over 2 million companies.

Here are a few key trends from this year's list: AI Dominates: No surprise, AI continues to lead the pack. Seven AI-focused startups made the list, with V7, a London-based GenAI company that automates office tasks, taking the top spot. Other standout AI companies include Parloa (Conversational AI) and Poolside AI (code-writing automation) 📈.

As some of you know, I have spent the last 6 months working on Yuno AI, a disruptive deal sourcing solutions that exploits AI technology to give an answers to the challenges faced by investors in sourcing, screening and initial due diligence. Today, perhaps the most prominent voice that is actively driving this new Data Driven Investment way, released the Data Driven VC Landscape 2024. Full of interesting tools, insights and analysis, I can't help but notice that Italy is still chasing with just 4 DDVC (Big shoutout - P101, Primo Ventures, Proximity Capital, iN3 Ventures) and that Europe as a whole is astonishingly behind North America in terms of total VC Funding per million people. Anyhow, AI presents a massive opportunity for all the private market investment industry. As well as VC also PE and M&A advisory need a radical shift in technology adoption and a faster, improved and more efficient method to source, screen potential deals, and accurately assess market landscape and competition. As a startup founders, I'd love to see an increasing risk prone approach by the private market ecosystem. We need as a whole to foster a community of innovators to exploit the infinite talent that our nation holds and move away from a 30 year old economic stagnation. Step by step I am sure we'll get there, what are your thoughts on integrating more AI-driven tools in our investment strategies? #VentureCapital #PrivateEquity #ArtificialIntelligence #DataDrivenInvesting #StartupLife #Innovation #TechnologyInFinance #InvestmentTrends2024
