## Resource

For decades, fundraising was driven by relationships. Today, it increasingly starts with AI. David sits down with Lex Suvanto, Global CEO of Edelman Smithfield, to discuss how artificial intelligence is changing fundraising, why reputation is becoming one of the most valuable assets for investment firms, how GPs can differentiate themselves in an increasingly crowded market, and why authentic thought leadership may become the biggest competitive advantage in private markets.
