We curate most relevant posts about Private Equity on LinkedIn and regularly share key takeaways.

This edition provides a comprehensive overview of the current state and strategies within the private equity (PE) industry, focusing heavily on operational value creation and market dynamics. Several authors highlight that the traditional PE playbook is shifting from pure financial engineering to a hands-on approach, requiring portfolio companies to implement strategies such as cost optimization, revenue growth (especially Go-to-Market strategies), and the strategic use of AI for revenue driving. Market commentary emphasizes ongoing challenges, including liquidity constraints, longer holding periods, and fierce competition for quality assets, which is driving the use of creative solutions like continuation funds (despite governance concerns) and increased M&A activity in sectors like HealthTech and consulting. Finally, the sources stress the critical importance of leadership and talent assessment, as well as the need for robust compliance, tax, and ESG/carbon strategies to mitigate risk and accelerate exit readiness.
