Graphs + AI: Transform Your Data Into Knowledge
Join us for a full day of insights, hands-on learning and real-world examples showing how graph technology transforms disconnected data into actionable knowledge that powers intelligent AI systems.
Agenda Highlights:
**Graphs + AI: Transform Your Data into Knowledge**
*Emil Eifrem, CEO, Neo4j*
Join us as Neo4j's **Emil Eifrem** explains how graph reveals the natural connections in your business data and provides the context AI needs to deliver real results. See how leading organizations turn enterprise knowledge into competitive advantage, powering intelligent decisions and driving business transformation.
**A new AI based Graph Visualization tool: Financial Graph network for non-graph experts**
*Fayçal Riad Hamou, Tech Lead - Financial Crime Prevention Services, DNB*
Understanding a financial graph network structure is a complex task. We introduce a new AI‑based graph visualization tool designed to make financial network analysis accessible to non‑graph experts. The tool enables users to explore relationships, detect patterns, and identify risks without requiring prior knowledge of graph theory. The approach lowers the barrier to advanced financial network analysis while supporting faster and more informed decision‑making
**Capgemini and AstraZeneca: Graph Implementation in Action**
*Johan Müllern-Aspegren, Emerging Tech Lead, Applied Innovation Exchange Nordics and Core Member of AI Futures Lab, Capgemini*
**From Fragmented Data to Holistic Insight: A Graph-Based Approach to Supply Chain Management**
*Alexander Hegermann Lauritsen, Data Scientist - AI & Digital Accelerator, Danfoss Group Digital & IT*
Modern supply chains are complex, multi-layered networks, yet fragmented systems often limit visibility, slow reactions to disruption, and make change hard to assess. In this talk, we share our journey to building a 360-degree, graph-based view of our end-to-end supply chain (SCM 360) using Neo4j, enabling impact analysis, risk propagation, traceability, and scenario exploration. We conclude with key lessons learned and what it takes to move from analytical insight to production-ready supply chain intelligence.
**Neo4j Product Vision & Roadmap**
*Ivan Zoratti, Vice President - Product Management, Neo4j*
An insider look at the latest Neo4j innovations enabling relationship-driven intelligence at scale. Learn about new features and enhancements that make Neo4j essential for developers building interconnected data apps and AI.

ARRIVAL: Doors open for CMG at 5:30pm so that’s when we’ll plan to meet! That’ll give us plenty of time to fill out our Oscar Ballots, pick up some free popcorn, candy, and something to drink, mix, mingle, take some photos, pick up your Newfangled Kitchen Meal Deal, grab a seat in our CMG Reserved Section, then settle in to enjoy the Academy Awards on the Big Screen!

RESERVED SEATING: As you enter the theater, the roped off section to the right marked “Reserved” is reserved for you, your guest(s) and the Columbus Movie Group!
VEGAN MEALS: As previously mentioned, the food vendor does NOT have a vegan option at this year’s Oscar Party. However, we DO have a solution! I have reached out to several individuals who are affected. If you are a vegan, plan to attend the Oscar Party and did not receive an e-mail from me, please reach out via private message post a note below. I’ll provide details off-line.
And while there won’t be a vegan meal option this year, I think we do have a workable solution. And, all other plans are usiness-as-usual: popcorn, sodas, candy, on-site paparazzi, decorations, bar drinks (including your first drink on the house), the Drexel’s Annual Oscar ballot contest, along with the Big Show on the Big Screen and a fun group of Movie Group friends to watch ‘em with!
