I’m truly honoured to be included and featured in the @CTOCraft 100 alongside so many inspiring technology leaders. A special thank you to the @CTOCraft community for the recognition, and for creating a space where leaders can learn, share, and grow together. 🙌
The secondaries market is one of the most misunderstood corners of private markets.
Last week, our CEO @avarma and panelists from @sydecario, @CrowdStreet, and CAIS tried to change that at the Private Wealth Infrastructure Summit.
Good conversations start with honest ones 🙌
“Top quartile”… according to a peer group they invented last week?
Almost every fund deck says it. Almost never means the same thing twice.
Here’s what’s always bothered me about private market benchmarking:
Fund managers are comparing themselves against something they can’t verify.
Top quartile vs. what peer group? What vintage?
It’s not benchmarking if you get to decide who’s in the benchmark.
Investors deserve better, so we built it.
Some of the best conversations happen when you're moving.
That's how we kicked off @TOtechweek: coffee (or Bubly) in hand, great people, and fresh air.
Our AI Demo Showcase event is up next. Link below ⤵️
For years, @avarma has been one of the most important people in Toronto tech without many outside the ecosystem fully understanding why.
He helped build Xtreme Labs. Autonomic sold to Ford. Xtreme’s story even brushes up against Tinder.
He has been described as “sort of the king of Toronto.” Others put it more bluntly: “What people don’t realize is that he was carrying Toronto and KW tech on his back.”
Now, with Mantle, he is building again.
My profile:
And just like that, the office (and our Slack channels) got a whole lot more energetic! 👋
The Summer '26 Co-op cohort has officially arrived at Mantle. We're excited to have Adren, Campbell, Erin, Nathan, Ray, Smeet, Stanley, and Tony joining the ranks.
From engineering to operations, we can't wait to see the incredible things they'll accomplish over the coming months!
My takeaway: the teams that will win aren't the ones who adopt agents — they're the ones who architect agentic systems from the ground up.
Grateful for the conversations and everyone who made it worth showing up for. 👋
#GoogleCloudNext#AgenticAI#CloudRun#MCP
Just got back from Google Cloud Next '26 in Las Vegas.
The message was clear: agentic AI is no longer a pilot. It's in production. The whole industry is moving.
A few things that stood out 🧵
Daniel de Repentigny & James Ma had standout talks on MCP orchestration and facilitating dynamic AI workloads on Cloud Run.
The kind of sessions where you walk away rethinking your own architecture. 👏
