Date	Time in PDT	Session	Venue
Monday, 1 June	1:30–1:50 p.m.	Global financial services firms operate where regulation, capital and trust collide. For private equity and their investors, unlocking tax value depends on understanding relationships across entities, partners, deals and jurisdictions — yet the data is often trapped in spreadsheets. In this session, we explore how a PE-backed global firm is rebuilding its tax data foundation on Snowflake, turning fragmented records into a connected, insight-driven platform that unlocks transparency, allows risk analysis to drive decisions, and cut review hours in half. Speakers: Claire Callahan, Partner, Financial Services Future of Work, AI & Data Strategy Leader, Ernst & Young U.S. LLP Michael Tran, Tax, Technology and Transformation Leader, Ernst & Young U.S. LLP	TBC


Date	Time in PDT	Session	Venue
Wednesday, 3 June	11:30 a.m.–12:15 p.m.	Organizations have invested heavily in AI, yet many struggle to show tangible value. Despite strong strategies, major spend, and numerous pilots, outcomes often fall short—productivity gains are uneven, impact is hard to measure, and transformation hasn’t scaled as expected. In this candid panel, industry and technology leaders move beyond success stories to examine real AI value creation, sharing where investments delivered results, where they stalled, and what enabled some to break through. This discussion explores how data readiness, operating models, governance and platform choices determine whether AI becomes lasting business value or remains an experiment. Panelists: Farooque Munshi, Partner, Technology Consulting, Ernst & Young LLP Subin Abraham, Director of Data & Analytics, Daikin Krithika Venkat, Managing Director, Head, WM Technology	TBC


Date	Time in PDT	Session	Venue
Thursday, 4 June	1:00–1:45 p.m.	Water is our most vital resource, yet its quality remains a global puzzle. Using some of the 26 million data points from the UN Environment Programme, participants of the 2026 EY AI and Data Challenge developed machine learning (ML) models to uncover the environmental drivers of water quality. But how do we move from a challenge competition to real-world usability? This panel explores the commercialization roadmap for water-quality AI. We address: Expanded data needs Improvements to model accuracy Funding and partnerships Speaker: Brian Killough, AI & Data Challenge Director, Ernst & Young LLP	ML102
