Workshop 2: Build a Market Map and Acquisition Target List
Founded by former private equity investors and AI engineers, Chariot Labs is joining Road To Carry, WithCoverage, and Ramp for a three-part workshop series. Together, they’re combining their experience to explore AI in everyday PE work, from screening deals and mapping markets to applying AI at portfolio companies.
Why this is important:
When PE investors pick up a new sector or target, one of the first steps is building a view of the market: understanding the industry structure, key trends and growth drivers, competitive dynamics, and the landscape of public companies, private incumbents, and emerging players. For sourcing work, that often extends into building a universe of potential acquisition targets that fit a specific investment mandate.
This workshop will show attendees how to use AI to accelerate the first pass of that research. Participants will leave with an in-depth market map and industry report for a sector of their choosing, along with a sourced list of potential acquisition targets they can continue diligencing and act on.
What attendees bring:
- A laptop
- An approved AI account (at least pro/business subscriptions for Claude / ChatGPT. Free accounts will not work).
What attendees leave with:
- Research instructions designed to identify up to 30 targets
- An in-depth research brief for the participants' selected industry
- A visual map from the exercise.
Registration:
Limited to 35 approved guests. Every request joins the waitlist for individual review. Your seat is confirmed only after approval.
