Acquiring AI-powered companies without a structured risk assessment creates downstream integration, compliance, and operational debt.

The situation this course is for

Organizations are moving fast to acquire AI-driven capabilities, but many lack a consistent method to evaluate vendor risk across technical, legal, and operational domains. This leads to overpayment, compliance exposure, and failed integrations.

Who this is for

Business and technology professionals in acquisitive organizations responsible for due diligence, risk governance, compliance, or post-merger integration of AI vendors.

Who this is not for

Individuals seeking introductory AI awareness or general cybersecurity training; this is not a beginner course.

What you walk away with

  • Apply a structured framework to assess AI vendor risk across technical, legal, and operational domains
  • Identify hidden liabilities in AI vendor contracts, data practices, and model governance
  • Lead cross-functional risk assessments with confidence and clarity
  • Integrate AI vendor evaluations into existing M&A workflows
  • Reduce post-acquisition integration friction using pre-validated assessment templates
