Speaker

Jason Dea is the Venture Chief Product Officer at Koru, the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan–funded venture studio. Jason helps discover, validate, build, and launch new ventures across OTPP’s portfolio, turning ambiguous ideas into high-conviction bets. A trusted startup advisor & coach, he guides founders from pre-MVP to post-raise with crisp product strategy and go-to-market focus.

Previously, Jason led product at Uberflip (acquired by PathFactory in July 2024), where he scaled an AI-enabled content experience platform, overseeing Product, UX, Product Marketing, Data Science, Services, and Support. Earlier roles at TELUS Health, Honeybee Benefits (acquired by Green Shield Canada), and Intelex sharpened his edge in data-driven product building, predictive analytics, and category storytelling.
