Real Deals has announced its 2026 Private Equity Awards shortlists, and Panamoure has been recognised in two categories. The nominations reflect the work the firm has done with PE investors and PE-backed enterprises through 2025 and 2026.
Why this matters to us
The Real Deals awards are decided by a panel of PE investors and acquirers. Being shortlisted is independent recognition that the AI Factory operating model is doing what we say it does: producing investor-grade work product at PE timelines, with measurable value reaching the P&L of the underlying portfolio companies.
"79% of our FY26 revenue ran through the AI Factory. Gross margin reached 61%, up from 45% in FY24. That is what AI-first means as an operating model, not a marketing claim."
What it changes
Not much, day to day. The work continues. The PE investors we work with continue to ask the same hard questions about their next deal and their next exit, and we continue to bring the same AI Factory operating model to the answer. The recognition is a useful external signal for new investor conversations.
The takeaway. If you are running a PE fund or a PE-backed portfolio company and have not yet seen the AI Factory in production, get in touch. We can produce an AI-orchestrated diligence sample on a real (or anonymised) target inside the same week.
