There's something irreplaceable about getting everyone in a room together. After months of virtual meetings and email chains, seeing the genuine excitement and curiosity on people's faces as they explored what we've been building reminded us why we do this work. It gave us the opportunity to celebrate the journey we’ve been on together and a chance to say thank you to the beta testers, customers, and partners who've helped shape where we're heading.
Our CEO Jamie Holmes kicked things off by setting the scene: the built environment is more complex than ever, and we're building tools that help teams move together without losing creativity. Then our CTO Ossian Whiley took everyone through what's new.
After the presentations, attendees got stuck into demo stations where they could explore the platform, ask questions, and give feedback. Lots of "how do I do this?" and "could it work for...?" conversations with our team.
We wrapped the evening with drinks, nibbles, and the kind of conversations that only happen when you get the right people together in person.
The new VU.CITY platform is launching in Spring 2026, and we'll be sharing more between now and then.
Hearing what resonates with you, what workflows matter most, and where you'd like us to focus next is invaluable as we head into the home stretch. If you'd like to be part of beta testing or have questions about what's coming, get in touch with our team.
And if you want to stay in the loop with all the latest VU.CITY news, make sure you're following us on LinkedIn.
This was the first of more gatherings to come, we're already thinking about the next one. Thanks again to everyone who joined us, and to the Eric Parry team for making it all possible. Here's to what comes next.
