Speaker Presentations

Following the Hall of Fame luncheon and induction ceremony, we have two speaker presentations that will be covering topics important to businesses right now: 


Mishkin Berteig, CEO & Chief Scientist from Max Good, AI Coach, will be on hand to discuss Artificial Intelligence and How Companies Can Use this Technology to Help Them in their Businesses. 

Topic Description: Many AI tools have been available to businesses for years, but recently chatbots and other tools powered by “generative AI” have opened a new frontier for businesses. Learn about the power of these new tools such as ChatGPT, Midjourney, Claude and Max Good to dramatically improve your business results and help you create better work environments for your staff.

Speaker Bio:


Mishkin Berteig's lifelong fascination with learning, intelligence, and education started in 1979. His passion for artificial intelligence was ignited by reading books like "The Emperor's New Mind" and "Gödel, Escher, and Bach". He experimented with early AI concepts by creating simple software simulations of artificial life and implementations of the back-propagation algorithm for neural networks in the late 80's.

In the late '90s, Mishkin worked on NLP tools for website analysis and later developed two industry-specific expert systems: "Scrum Insight" and the "Real Agility Culture Assessment". Throughout his professional life, he has been involved in various AI/ML projects.

For most of the past two decades, Mishkin has been dedicated to helping managers and their teams improve through the use of Agile methods such as Scrum and Kanban. He has worked closely with a multitude of global organizations to help them improve their way of working.

Inspired by prompt design experiments with OpenAI in mid-2022, Mishkin founded Max Good, AI Coach on August 31st, 2022. He is dedicated to advancing humanity by combining spiritual principles with technology in work environments.


Also, joining us will be TD Bank Economist Rishi Sondhi, who will provide an Economic Update and Outlook with insights to understanding the key factors impacting the North American and Global economies.

Topic Description:  Join us for a presentation by one of TD Bank’s top economists on the key factors impacting the Canadian, U.S. and Global economies. This session will provide you with key insights into GDP and recession concerns; forecasts for inflation, interest rates and the Canadian dollar; info on the Canadian housing market; as well as other important economic issues to keep you in the know as you finalize your business plans for 2024. There will be time for Q&A so come prepared with any questions you may have.

Speaker Bio:


Rishi Sondhi has been with the TD Economics team since 2017, where he is responsible for analyzing and forecasting provincial economies and housing markets and is a contributor to a variety of TD publications. 

Prior to TD Bank, he worked with a real estate consulting firm where he researched and forecasted housing markets across Canada, as well as provincial and municipal economic activity.
