Over the past six weeks, I had the opportunity to lead a strategic analysis project for Elgner Group Investments focused on the impact of AI-powered startups on private equity in Canada. Our research explored how AI is transforming deal sourcing, valuation, and asset management, and provided a deep dive into five disruptive Canadian startups leading this evolution. Through competitive analysis, trend mapping, and strategic recommendations, we created a comprehensive report and presentation designed to help investors stay ahead of industry innovation. This experience sharpened my skills in market analysis, business model evaluation, and emerging tech strategy—while reinforcing the value of AI as a driver of change in financial services.
