 key to reimagining one of the world’s most iconic brands, contributing
  to the production team behind the hit Barbie movie, which grossed $1.5
  billion worldwide. Today, he brings that same builder’s mindset to th
 e world of artificial intelligence (AI) and emerging technology, equippi
 ng audiences with the tools to navigate what’s next with clarity and c
 onfidence.\n\nA trusted futurist, Nassar is the author of The AI Product
  Design Handbook and The World After AI (scheduled for release in Winter
  2026). He has worked with more than 250 organizations — from Apple an
 d TD Bank to TELUS and the Government of Canada — including to develop

 bs focused on real-world implementation.\n\n-- Presenters --\n\nListed i
