AI in Environmental Due Diligence: Hype, Reality & Benchmarking

Alan Agadoni will unveil results from the LightBox Benchmark Survey on AI in Environmental Due Diligence, cutting through the hype to reveal where firms are truly adopting AI, how peers are managing defensibility and risk, and what it takes to get in the game responsibly. The findings show an industry at an inflection point: adoption is accelerating, delivering measurable efficiency gains, while governance, training, and oversight lag behind. With clients still shaping their expectations, now is the time to define what responsible, competitive AI adoption looks like—and how to turn safeguards and strategy into advantage.

Key topics include:

  • AI Adoption Trends

  • Company Governance & Responsible Use

  • Efficiency & Workflow Acceleration

  • Risk, Accuracy & Liability

  • Workforce & Professional Impact
