Where AI Is Paying Back: From breakthrough to bottom line
An enterprise finance morning, hosted by Snowfox and Google.
About
Boards are asking CFOs what AI is delivering. The real answer, in most enterprises, is: not yet what they had hoped. Only 31% of CFOs rate AI outcomes in their own finance function as strongly positive.*
The gap is not about technology. It is about where AI is being deployed, how it is being scaled, and which parts of the finance function are designed to absorb it.
Join Snowfox and Google in Stockholm on Thursday, 3rd September for a morning with senior enterprise finance leaders. We will move past AI as a category and into AI as a measurable outcome, anchored in the layer of the finance function where the evidence is strongest today: the close, invoice-to-cash, and procure-to-pay. The transactional core of the function, where AI is producing the most defensible returns.

What you will hear
Where AI is actually paying back in enterprise finance.
The CFO question of 2026 is not whether to invest in AI. It is whether it is paying back yet, and where. We will look at the parts of the finance function where the evidence is strongest, and what that performance actually looks like in production.
Why speed, not cost, is the headline outcome.
48% of CFOs cite cycle-time compression as the biggest AI win in their finance function, ahead of headcount or cost savings.* The boardroom narrative is changing, and the better story is also the more defensible one.
How leading enterprises are scaling beyond pilots.
Most finance organisations are still in pilot or limited production. The few who have scaled into full deployment share a common observation: AI layered onto unchanged processes produces workflow debt. We will hear from those who have made the crossing.
Who is in the room
Enterprise CFOs, Heads of Finance, Finance Transformation Leads, Heads of AP and Heads of Shared Services from Nordic and European B2B enterprises.
The morning is by invitation only and capped at 40 attendees, hosted at Google’s Stockholm office. A working morning, not a conference – small enough for senior finance leaders to talk to one another, intimate enough for candid conversation, with room to follow up afterwards.
