What is the Pragmatic AI Integration Risk for M&A course about?

As AI becomes central to valuation in mergers and acquisitions, teams in regulated industries face growing pressure to assess intangible, fast-evolving risks without clear precedent or tools. Legacy due diligence processes miss critical failure points in data provenance, model governance, and post-merger integration of AI systems. This creates execution risk, compliance exposure, and missed value capture opportunities.
