September TrueNorthCTO @ Toronto Event

​2025.05 - TrueNorthCTO @ Toronto

​This session will include 2 presentations/demonstrations:

​1) Why Your Cloud Bill Is a Culture Problem, Not a Tech Problem

​Presenter: Aiman Parvaiz, Founder - NimbusStack

​LinkedIn: /aiman-parvaiz

​Most companies attack cloud costs with tools, dashboards and discounts yet their bills keep climbing. The real problem isn’t technology, it’s culture. Without leadership alignment and a cost-conscious engineering mindset, savings stay stuck in spreadsheets.

​In this session, we’ll explore how management practices, cultural buy-in, and context-rich FinOps can transform cloud cost optimization from one-off cuts into sustainable, strategic advantage.

​2) Vibe Coding with Lovable

​Presenter: John Kost, Founder – LVS.ai 

​LinkedIn: /johnkost

​Building a Digital Clinician Platform for the coming age, with AI-based tools that are coming of age quickly. A six-month window walk-thru.

​The agenda:

​6:00 PM - 6:30 PM – Networking (Food & Refreshments)
6:30 PM – 8:00 PM - Presentations and Q/A
8:00 PM – 9:00 PM - Networking/Discussion

​Food and beverages will be sourced for the event. The organizer (a volunteer) will make a good-faith effort to provide a variety of food/beverage options. However, pre-selecting meal options is not an option due to bandwidth limitations.

​​TrueNorthCTO is a volunteer-driven, not-for-profit, and curated community of senior technology leaders (e.g. CTOs, CPOs, CIOs, CISOs, CAIOs etc.) across Canada.  

​​TrueNorth provides a collaborative and supportive environment where technologists can share insights, mentor, inspire, and learn from one another based on our collective knowledge and experiences.

​​The attendance will be curated with preference to those who are senior leaders AND technologists.
