Track 13 Technology that moves the multiple: a pragmatic approach to value creation
Technology is increasingly central to private equity value creation, yet many portfolio companies carry years of accumulated technical debt, fragmented systems, and incremental technology decisions that limit scalability and operational leverage. In this panel discussion, operating partners and technology leaders will share practical perspectives on how they are prioritizing modernization efforts and focusing investment on initiatives that materially influence growth, efficiency, and exit outcomes:
- Separating technology noise from initiatives that increase valuation
- When technical debt becomes a value creation constraint
- Avoiding expensive iteration on architecture or platform decisions
- Aligning technology roadmaps with hold periods and exit strategy
- Applying AI to drive measurable performance improvement, not just innovation headlines
