The AI Fix for Private Equity

Artificial Intelligence isn't a side project. It's the new playbook.

Most AI initiatives stall in pilot purgatory, chasing cosmetic wins that don't move the needle. This book shows private equity leaders how to do it differently by building intelligent systems that scale, adapt, and create real enterprise value.

Written by Mark Rogerson, a seasoned private equity Operating Partner and Portfolio Chair, and Gary Pearson, former CEO of a publicly listed tech company, startup founder, and turnaround strategist, The AI Fix for Private Equity delivers a field-tested framework to:

•Identify real AI advantage, before the deal is signed
•Build intelligent systems that learn, adapt, and defend margins
•Avoid the leadership, governance, and cost traps that kill value
•Turn token costs, model risks, and system debt into strategic clarity
•Prepare for buyer scrutiny and exit with a defensible AI narrative

Both authors are former Royal Air Force officers and air traffic controllers turned software executives, bringing a system-level perspective to modern business operations.

Whether you're sourcing deals, running transformation programs, or shaping the equity story for exit, this is the guide that cuts through the noise and gets to work.
