Today is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. This day exists because Survivors spoke, and kept speaking. Our role is to listen and act, not to speak for them. We are grateful for our indigenous partnerships and remain committed to listening and learning.

Yesterday we were proud to host the Sandbox Claims team for a day of exploring, design thinking, innovation and ideating.

While this isn’t a traditional workshop, it uses familiar exercises led by our strategists to move the Sandbox team through a real business challenge, while zu designers and developers use AI enabled tools to accelerate iteration and help turn ideas into a tangible, interactive proof of concept.

Thanks to the Sandbox Mutual Insurance crew for continuing to let us experiment with new ways to work while still supporting your growth and innovation goals!

Looking for XCamp? Look for it in 2027! ✖️

One thing we’ve always tried to achieve with XCamp is that the event feels genuinely fresh. We’ve worked hard each year to bring you new speakers, ideas, and perspectives that reflect where digital, customer experience, and technology are heading…and not simply repeat what we’ve done before.

Our sights are now locked in on XCamp Volume IV and we have some exciting ideas in the works to come back strong and deliver what you have all come to expect of this event.

Keep those eyes peeled 👀 for when that info drops!

xo, the zu crew 🖤

Page speed isn’t a technical footnote. It’s a deliberate ranking factor Google measures and a number your customers feel in every click.

Legacy code and technical debt slow sites down quietly, often without anyone noticing until traffic or conversions start to slip. A Drupal 11 upgrade for your site is a chance to fix the speed problem at the source.

zu has been building and upgrading Drupal sites since Drupal 6, with more than 12 upgrades completed this year.

Great municipal websites don’t make people work. They make government services feel simple and everyday services easy to find and use.

That’s exactly what we set out to build with the City of Yellowknife.

Together, we transformed a department-first website into a service-first digital experience that’s intuitive to navigate, easier to manage, and built to evolve alongside the City’s growing digital services. This build incorporated many of zu’s expertise areas including research and UX strategy, design and brand touches, Drupal development, content migration, and AI-enhanced search to name a few.

This really was all about making everyday interactions feel effortless and ensuring the website served the local people in the best way possible.

Thanks to the collaborative team at City of Yellowknife for being an incredible partner throughout the journey. We can’t wait to see how the new platform continues to serve the community.
