Fatih Nayebi, PhD is an AI-transformation trailblazer who was commercialising machine-learning products before “data science” hit the vernacular. As Vice President of Data & AI at ALDO Group, he converts billions of footwear and fashion datapoints into sharper demand forecasts, hyper-personalised journeys, and demonstrable profit gains.
At McGill University’s Master of Management in Analytics, Fatih shapes the next wave of leaders to carry AI from whiteboard to production—grounding every lesson in technical rigour, interpretability, and measurable business value.
He is the author of Foundations of Agentic AI for Retail—the industry’s playbook for multi-agent systems that learn, decide, and act autonomously across the entire merchandising lifecycle—and the best-selling Swift Functional Programming series.
Fluent in transformer architectures, peer-reviewed research, P&L accountability, and boardroom strategy, Fatih unites cutting-edge science with commercial reality. His North Star: prove that AI isn’t a mere tech upgrade—it’s the decisive edge turning today’s innovators into tomorrow’s market leaders.
