AI in M&A

Artificial Intelligence in Mergers and Acquisitions

Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) represent strategic initiatives for organizations to enhance competitiveness, and capitalize on market opportunities.  The integration of Artificial Intelligence has shaped traditional approaches and unlocked new avenues for value creation. M&A refers to a merger involving the combination of two companies into a single entity, often aiming for synergies enhancing operational efficiency.  Acquisitions occur when a company takes over another to expand its footprint in the market, accessing new customer bases for specific assets or intellectual property.  Osiz offers AI solutions for these transactions involving detailed financial analysis, strategic planning spanning months or even years.
