New Zoom background unlocked: glowing Caseway sign.

Now every meeting looks like it’s either:

1. A serious AI strategy session

2. Or the afterparty for one

Either way, I’m keeping it lit.

This past week was one for the books.

On Friday, I had the chance to pitch at The Syndicate in front of around 100 people. I shared my journey, from my time in the military, to building an e-commerce company.

✨ What an incredible evening! ✨

Team Caseway had the privilege of attending A Night to Inspire, a beautiful gala in support of InspireHealth Supportive Cancer Care. The event raised an amazing $765,000 for programs and services that help patients and families facing cancer.

Apparently Deloitte had to put up a sign reminding people not to drink the toilet water.

To be fair, it’s not just any toilet water, it’s “LEED Platinum-certified rainwater reuse” toilet water.

Sustainability: ✅. Hydration: ❌.

Really enjoying the Venture Founder program so far. Yesterday I had the chance to pitch in front of about 100 people, a great experience and a good test of the 30 second elevator pitch I’ve been refining.

It's easy to explain what you do in 5 minutes, but very hard in 30 seconds.

Yesterday’s Keiretsu Forum Vancouver event at SFU Venture Labs was a great one. Heard some strong Series A pitches, connected with angels, and wrapped up with good conversations at Rogue Gastown.

Always energizing to see this community in action.

🚨 7-Month Performance Review 🚨

Product: A Baby 👶

Delivery: 9 months + random rollout delays. Logistics were… rough.

Launch: exceeded all KPIs. Lightweight at first, growth metrics now insane.

Features: addictive “new baby” smell (limited edition), game-changing smile update.

An unforgettable evening with the Canadian Cancer Society, fashion, purpose, and breathtaking opera. ✨

A night that celebrated resilience, creativity, and community in support of cancer survivors. 💜

AI is out of control. And why do I look so beat up? lol

We’re in.

Caseway has been accepted into the competitive Innovation UBC’s Venture Founder Fall 2025 cohort!

Why this matters: tough intake, hands-on mentors, and a stage-gated build process that pushes teams to real traction.

Weekend = 2 events + 1 Grouse Grind. 🏔️ We’re building a Vancouver circle of action-doers (no scrubs). If you’re pushing, building, creating — DM me. 🚀

Caseway’s investor roadshow hit Langley! 🤠🐎 Horses, BBQ, cowboy hats, and great investor convos. Excited for the new partners joining us on this ride! 🚀

This is also a problem for Vancouver’s tech community. The city is full of high-net-worth individuals who made their money in real estate, yet many can’t (or won’t) put even $50,000 into a promising startup.

Alistair Vigier @alistairvigier.bsky.social · Aug 15

Next stop on the Caseway investor roadshow: Kelowna! 🍇☀️ Met with 15+ incredible investors, swapped big ideas over bigger coffees, and left with some exciting new future investors in the making. The Okanagan isn’t just good for wine, it’s for the future of AI too. 🚀

Accelerate Okanagan

Turning over rocks, chasing leads, and making deals.

Lawyers used to track every six minutes like it was sacred. Now, AI can do in seconds what used to take hours. Clients know it. Lawyers know it. The only people pretending otherwise? Firms clinging to outdated pricing models.

Lyra's first message to me 😂

It’s always good to shake things up. Stepping outside your usual routine, even briefly, can reset your brain, spark new ideas, and remind you there’s more than one way to live a day. Whether it’s a new place, a new habit, or just a different route home, change forces awareness.

Come by sometime and let's catch up!
