S&P Global Market Intelligence and the International Valuation Standards Council (IVSC) are pleased to host a timely executive forum in the heart of New York City, bringing together a select group of senior investment, risk, and valuation professionals for an expert panel session on how leaders can sharpen their AI investments, separate enterprise value from hype—and price governance risk.

 As companies accelerate AI adoption, operating committees and valuation teams must determine whether AI initiatives create defensible value or simply increase costs and risk.

The program will open with insights from Nick Talbot, CEO of IVSC, feature a panel moderated by Luca Blasi, Global Head of Private Markets & Regulatory Solutions at S&P Global Market Intelligence, and close with a networking reception. Additional speakers will be announced soon.

 Key themes will include:

  • How to assess AI readiness, adoption, and measurable ROI
  • Valuation of proprietary data, models, software, and other AI-related IP
  • Whether AI should affect revenue growth, margins, terminal value or valuation multiples
  • How privacy, cybersecurity, regulatory exposure, model reliability, and algorithmic bias should enter forecasts or discount rates
  • What evidence valuation committees and auditors should  require before recognizing an “AI premium”
  • How board-level AI governance and controls can preserve—or impair—enterprise value
