One day in Victoria. Real tools, demoed live by the people who built them for their own firms. No pitch decks.
35 seats. Seats are not on sale yet; the date is being confirmed. Request one and you will hear first.
Four things, and none of them is a reading list.
“Not theory. Things you can actually run.”
Specific moves, with the tools named and the cost named. Concrete enough to explain to your bookkeeper that evening. Not a reading list and not a set of principles. Three things, and the steps to run them.
Take-home · One-pagers Every attendee
“This worked, and here’s what it cost me.”
Operators who tried this in their own firms, telling you what worked and what it cost. The failures get talked about too, because that is the part nobody else will tell you. People who came up on the tools, not consultants describing an industry from the outside.

“A real number, not a gut feel.”
A straight benchmark of your firm’s digital maturity, scored on the day rather than mailed out later. Most owners have never had a real number put on this. You get one, plus what closing the gap is worth in time and margin.

“Small enough that you actually talk.”
A curated room of 35, capped deliberately. Breakout rooms small enough that you talk instead of listen, then a rooftop to finish the conversations properly. You leave knowing a handful of operators worth calling.
Room · Curated Island trades
Short talks to set the ground. Live demos of tools already running in real trades businesses. Breakout rooms where you work through your own situation. Then the rooftop, where the real conversations happen.
Enough to set the ground and no more. Nobody reads slides at you.
Tools already running in real trades firms, shown working.
Small groups. You bring your own situation and work on it.
Where the real conversations happen, once the sessions are done.
Running order and times are confirmed closer to the day.
SAPE is the framework the day is built on. It is how we break a business into parts you can actually fix, instead of one vague problem called “we should do something about technology.”
Where the business is going, and what technology should be doing to get it there.
The repeatable work that should not need a person doing it by hand every time.
How the firm shows up and gets found. Site, profile, reviews, reputation.
Your team being able to run all of it without you sitting in the middle.
How the rotation works. Everyone moves through all three rooms, roughly 30 minutes each, in small groups. You bring your own situation. You leave each room with one sheet you can act on.
3 × 30 minLed by Josh Nash · Aurisen Solutions
Score your own firm across all four pillars and find where the gap actually is, which is rarely where owners assume. Then work out what closing it is worth, and what your team could run without you.
Led by Matteo Sotelo & Aman Monga · Livmora Solutions
Bring the admin task that eats your week: quoting, billing, chasing replies, keeping the profile current. Watch it get automated in front of you, then get the steps to set it up yourself. This room covers the Presence pillar too.
Led by Jackson Sweet · Canpro Deck and Rail
What purpose-built software looks like when it is made for one trade’s exact workflow, by someone who runs a construction firm himself. What it took to build, what it cost, and how you would scope one for your own operation.
Four tools already running in real businesses. Nothing is built from scratch on stage and nothing is a mock-up.
Where your firm actually sits, scored on the spot.
Demo Josh Nash
An enquiry turns into a drafted quote without anyone retyping it.
Demo Matteo Sotelo
Photos from the job feed a profile that stays current without anyone remembering to post.
Demo Aman Monga
A full deck design and code-compliance tool, built for a single contractor’s workflow, plus what it takes to build one for yours.
Demo Jackson Sweet
Owners and operators of Vancouver Island trades and construction firms. If you run the business, make the calls, and have wondered what this technology actually does for a company like yours, this is the room.
People who run firms, build the tools, and use them in their own work.
Strategy and implementation. Runs the Strategy & Enablement room and scores digital maturity live on the day.
Event and go-to-market. Puts the room together: sponsors, promotion, logistics, and the networking that runs after the sessions.
Automation and AI workflows. Builds the tools that take the repeat admin work off a trades team.
Marketing and client communications. Profiles, reviews, and reply handling that keep running on their own.
Runs a construction firm and built the software to run it. Speaks to where the line sits between doing it yourself and hiring it out.
An Aurisen Solutions event.
Backing the first cycle so the room stays small and the day stays free of sales pitches.
