THURSDAY NOV 20th Emilie Lundblad and Laura Frølich will share experiences from two cases in the venture building studio Amesto NextBridge.

Talk1: "AI Due diligence"

One remarkably interesting case involved a due diligence study of data and machine learning aspects of a start-up that a venture capital fund was considering investing in. We will describe how we approached this systematically and the focus areas of our study, as well as our experience in this area from our AILab initiative.
