CFO AI Leverage Report: AI Budgets, ROI and Finance Sign-Off

**Event Title** Enterprise AI is moving from experimentation into the finance office. Open Future Forum has released the **CFO AI Leverage Report, Edition 1**, introducing the **Enterprise AI Buying & Budget Index** and the **CFO AI Leverage Index**. The report examines how CFOs and senior finance leaders are evaluating AI budgets, buying authority, ROI, productivity, governance and the question now sitting at the center of enterprise AI adoption: **Can AI help companies grow output without growing headcount at the same rate?** Read the report here: [https://openfutureforum.com/research/cfo-ai-leverage-report](https://openfutureforum.com/research/cfo-ai-leverage-report) This private executive discussion will focus on what the report means for CFOs, founders, finance leaders, AI operators, investors and enterprise executives. We will look at how AI buying is shifting, who signs off on AI purchases, what finance teams are measuring, and why AI ROI is becoming a CFO-level issue rather than only a technology issue. According to the report, enterprise generative AI spending reached approximately **$37 billion in 2025**, more than tripling from the prior year. At the same time, the share of AI spend funded from experimental innovation budgets fell from **25% to 7%** in one year, showing that AI is moving into core operating budgets. The report also draws on Open Future Forum’s 2026 executive community activity, including **200+ executive registrations across 20+ events**, with **60+ finance leaders and operators**, **50+ security leaders**, and **100+ founders**. In an early directional read, **3 in 5 finance leaders asked said the CFO or finance organization signs off on AI purchases**, rather than the CEO or IT. This discussion is connected to the **CFO Executive Forum**, Open Future Forum’s invitation-only community for CFOs and senior finance leaders of high-growth companies. The CFO Executive Forum hosts small, off-the-record gatherings across Silicon Valley focused on AI, capital allocation, governance, growth, risk, productivity and the changing role of the finance function.

The next phase is about leverage. Executives are no longer asking only whether AI works. They are asking whether AI creates measurable business value, improves productivity, reduces operating drag, supports growth and helps teams do more without simply adding more tools, more vendors and more headcount. That is a finance question. The CFO AI Leverage Report and Enterprise AI Buying & Budget Index are designed to track that shift over time. **Key links** CFO AI Leverage Report: [https://openfutureforum.com/research/cfo-ai-leverage-report](https://openfutureforum.com/research/cfo-ai-leverage-report) CFO Executive Forum: [https://openfutureforum.com/cfo-executive-forum](https://openfutureforum.com/cfo-executive-forum) Open Future Forum: [https://openfutureforum.com](https://openfutureforum.com/)

🍿N*KED MOVIE NIGHT w/ THE BATE COACH (32nd St)

Team "So What" weekly meeting Essex, Bergen, Hudson, Passaic, Morris Counties

• What we'll do We are a team of men who support one another and help each other grow concerning our "Way of being" in what occurs in our day to day lives. The most important relationship a man will have in his life is the relationship he has with himself. How he shows up in the world stems from that relationship. I experience great joy watching men grow and come to terms with who they are. This is not about figuring out who we are. It's about creating a vision of the best we can be and making that happen. Captain Roloff We are a part of an international men’s organization consisting of over 850 throughout North America and is open to any adult man who seeks to live a purposeful, passionate life and seeks to achieve new levels of personal success. Get an inside view here: http://www.legacymag.org/ Within North America, there are hundreds of men’s teams that consist of anywhere from 5 to 25 men per team. Teams usually meet weekly at men’s homes, places of business or public areas. Teams strive to provide an environment where men get to step out of their daily routine and get another perspective, unload any emotional or mental burdens, commit to success as they define it, and have fun in the process. • What to bring Bring your "A" game • Important to know Contact: Captain John Roloff 856-419-3372 johnr207@gmail.com

The Virtue Circle: Order — Character and Self-Improvement

**The Virtue Circle: Order — Character and Self-Improvement** **Location:** Starbucks inside Target **Address:** 88-01 Queens Blvd, Elmhurst, NY 11373 **Length:** 25 minutes This is a meeting of **The Virtue Circle**, an in-person discussion group focused on developing one virtue or high-performance attribute at a time. This week’s virtue is **Order**. * **Definition:** Let all your things have their places; let each part of your business have its time. * **Interpretation:** Order means giving your possessions, duties, time, and systems their proper place. * **Action:** Give one scattered item, task, document, or responsibility a clear place, time, or sequence. Order is an important virtue because it turns intention into execution. When things have a place and duties have a time, life becomes easier to run, easier to resume, and harder to neglect. We will meet at the Starbucks seating area inside Target for a short, structured 25-minute discussion. Look for **The Virtue Circle** sign or notebook. \*\*\* **Meeting Format** **1\. Virtue of the Week** We introduce Order, including its definition and interpretation. **2\. Personal Reflection** Each person reflects on where Order is currently strong or weak in their own life. **3\. Group Discussion** We discuss what Order means, what makes it difficult to practice, and what it looks like in real conduct. **4\. Practical Action** Each person chooses one small action to practice Order during the coming week. \*\*\* **Group Guidelines** * Please arrive on time. * Keep the discussion respectful, practical, and focused on the virtue of the week. * Speak from your own life and experience. * Listen carefully when others are sharing. * The goal is not perfection. The goal is steady improvement. \*\*\* **Participation Note** Attendance is voluntary. The Virtue Circle is a discussion group for adults, focused on personal reflection and practical improvement only. It does not provide legal, medical, psychological, financial, or professional advice. Each member is responsible for their own conduct, choices, belongings, and personal safety while attending. \*\*\* No prior reading is required. New members are welcome.
