What is due diligence research in project development?

Due diligence, or "appropriate diligence," is an in-depth investigation that maps out the legal, financial and factual aspects of a project. In project development, this research is crucial because the scale and complexity of projects often lead to hidden risks. By identifying these early, you can prevent problems and make the most of opportunities.
