The AI Investment Cycle: Platforms, Infrastructure, and Markets | Global Conference 2026
Yun-Hee Kim, Dennis Gada, Tony Kim, Lily Liu, Scott Rubner
This event analyzes the current trillion-dollar trajectory of global AI capital expenditure, which is driving a structural market shift away from traditional SaaS models toward a three-layer stack dominated by compute and intelligence providers. Key figures from Citadel, BlackRock, and the Solana Foundation discuss the emergence of machine-to-machine financial rails, the geopolitical bifurcation of sovereign AI, and the impending influx of trillion-dollar AI valuations into public markets. The discourse concludes by projecting long-term economic rewiring that will necessitate new frameworks for human capital, cognitive preservation, and decentralized ownership models.

AI and Digital Transformation's Impact on Investing | Global Conference 2025
David Steinberg, Jim Breyer, Dipanjan "DJ" Deb, Greg Emerson, Dennis Gada, Jodie Wallis, Shanali Basak
A panel of industry leaders including Jodi, Dennis, DJ, Greg, and Jim established a consensus that organizations must adopt a hybrid "build, buy, and partner" strategy, favoring external foundational models while retaining in-house development for specific strategic assets. The discussion highlighted acute shortages of top-tier mathematical talent and warned of critical risks ranging from quantum decryption threats to deepfake fraud, necessitating robust, materiality-based governance frameworks. Looking forward, experts predicted AI will act as a catalyst for enterprise transformation and private equity value creation, though they cautioned that true value lies in revenue growth rather than mere productivity gains or marketing hype.
