We'd like to invite you to an intimate, invite-only lunch conversation on what it actually takes to transform a financial organization toward AI. We're bringing together a small group of senior leaders from financial and insurance firms for a candid fireside chat and peer exchange — no slides, no pitches. Featured speakers: • Ozge Yeloglu, VP Advanced Analytics & AI, CIBC • Parinaz Sobhani, Head of AI, Sagard Ozge and Parinaz will share their real stories — the change management battles, governance trade-offs, build vs. buy decisions, how they measure what matters, and what they'd do differently. Then we open the table for peer exchange. Topics we'll cover: — Becoming AI-native: what actually changes inside the organization — Top-down and bottom-up: back-office and front-office examples — Governance without killing momentum — Build vs. buy as the market matures — Measurement and ROI: what to trust and what to ignore *Toronto Tech Week is a citywide celebration of the people building what’s next. From May 26–29, 2026, founders, investors, and builders come together for hundreds of community-led events across Toronto, connecting tens of thousands of people around Canadian tech.
