April 2026 - May 2026

Funding entity Piedmont Asesoramiento de Negocio y Dirección S.L.


Development of a decision-support application for mergers and acquisitions (M&A) processes in the retail sector. The system integrates geospatial APIs (Google Places, Distance Matrix and Street View) with multimodal large language models (GPT-4.1) to automatically identify acquisition targets and characterise their commercial attractiveness.


Layman's summary: Application that combines digital cartography and multimodal artificial intelligence to identify investment opportunities.



Techniques employed: Geospatial APIs (Google Places, Distance Matrix, Street View), multimodal large language models (GPT-4.1) with structured output via JSON Schema, spherical geometry (haversine), Python ETL pipeline, Streamlit interface and native cross-platform packaging (macOS and Windows).
