“We take technology as a given in our lives, but no other programs really think about how technology can shape our businesses,” said Dr. Murat Kristal, PhD, Director, MBA in Technology Leadership. “There has been a disconnect between what you want to achieve versus how it is going to be achieved technologically.” Read about the Tech MBA curriculum in this BetaKit article: https://lnkd.in/gfW3uDUd

“Opportunities don’t often come along. So when they do, you have to grab them.” - Audrey Hepburn I recently had the extraordinary opportunity to embark on a 2-week study tour in #Chile and #Peru with the Schulich School of Business - York University, focusing on #internationalbusiness and #sustainability. This experience broadened my perspectives in remarkable ways. 3 key takeaways: 1. International Business Landscape Chile and Peru boast vibrant business environments with unique challenges and opportunities. Chile, with its robust mining and energy sectors, plus strong trade policies, is a powerhouse in South America. Peru's rapidly growing economy, driven by mining, agriculture, and tourism, highlights the region's dynamic and diverse nature. 2. Sustainability as a Core Value Sustainability permeated every interaction and site visit. Both countries are diligently addressing environmental challenges while fostering economic growth. Peru’s initiatives to protect its ecosystems, like the Amazon rainforest and rich agricultural exports, and Chile’s investments in renewable energy projects, show how governments and companies are integrating sustainability into their core strategy. 3. Innovation & Technology As an MBA student specializing in technology, I was captivated to see tech and innovation featured prominently in every conversation. We met with startups and major banks, learning how they use technology to tackle issues like climate change, supply chain optimization, portfolio management, and enhanced user experiences. Beyond business insights, immersing in Chilean and Peruvian culture was unforgettable. We explored the bustling streets of #Santiago and #Lima, admired Valparaíso's vibrant street art, and savoured exquisite local cuisine. Also had one day off where I went paragliding and surfing. This journey demonstrated the tight link between business & culture, emphasizing the need for culturally informed strategies and aligning growth with societal impact. I’m deeply grateful to all the distinguished organizations that warmly welcomed us and shared their insights. Special thanks to Kyklos Chile, Sembrador Capital Copec WIND Ventures COPEC S.A. Viñedos Veramonte and Evalueserve in Chile, and BBVA BBVA en Perú sinba Profonanpe and Minsur S.A. in Peru. As well as the Canadian embassies in Chile and Peru. Chilean – Canadian Chamber of Commerce Chamber of Commerce Canada Peru HUGE thank you to my amazing professor Ingo Holzinger for your outstanding leadership and maximizing our learning experiences, and Cheryl Stickley and Ann Welsh, RCIC for your immaculate planning & coordination efforts. Lastly, thank you to my colleagues (now lifelong friends!), who made this journey so fun and memorable. I'm moving forward with renewed inspiration & fierce determination ready to tackle my 2nd and final year of the MBA program! #SchulichSchoolofBusiness #StudyTour #MGMT6400 #TechMBA #MBA #YorkUniversity Schulich MBA in Technology Leadership

I read this Globe & Mail article about Toronto office vacancies hitting an all-time high with disappointment. Filling space has to start with adding value, not bums in seats. In August 2020, I was tapped to lead the reboot of OneEleven, which went defunct during the earliest days of COVID. Within two years under my team's leadership, we rebuilt a unique value add program for startups, and reestablished a premier tech accelerator, recovering to a membership of 40 venture backed portfolio companies that collectively raised $800M in funding. OneEleven was named by Bay Street Bull (now GLORY Media) as one of Canada's 50 Most Impactful Companies (2022), and created ecosystem-leading partnerships, such as a first-of-its-kind venture studio with Schulich MBA in Technology Leadership, and strategic alliances with global accelerators/investors Antler and Techstars. We also re-filled 55,000 sq. feet of premium priced co-working space, in the midst of downtown Toronto commercial real estate vacancies soaring to record highs. BetaKit has the full background (https://lnkd.in/gz6gz6vm). Value and community first, and then people will come!
