Global Surveyors' Day
2026-03-21 08:00 - 17:00
The path to Global Surveyors’ Day began back in ancient Egypt when society first used surveying techniques to divide land. Throughout history, surveyors have remained the pioneers of discovery shaping our world to its current existence by exploring the unknown on earth and in space. Fast forward to 2013 when the signing of the Budapest declaration created a common worldwide celebration for those leaders, past and present. We are proud to proclaim Global Surveyors’ Day as a way to globally recognize the ground-breakers, pioneers, individuals and the industry that has shaped our history and continues to be the foundation of our communities.

Where survey firms are quietly losing money (Free Educational Webinar)
2026-04-08 08:00 - 09:00
Hi,

Most survey firms don’t struggle because they’re bad at surveying.

They struggle because no one ever taught them the commercial side of running a survey business.

Across the industry, we’re seeing the same pattern again and again.

Not a lack of work …

… but a slow, quiet leak in revenue that most firms never measure.

It usually shows up as:

time spent on the wrong activity

discounting just to win work

missed projects you never even hear about

fixing things later that should’ve been built properly from the start

Individually, none of these feel like a big deal.

But when you add them up … it’s often $$$’s a year.

So we’re hosting a webinar to break this down properly, in a way that actually makes sense for surveyors.

No fluff. No “just post more on LinkedIn” advice.

Just a clear look at where the money is going, why it’s happening and what to fix first.

If you’ve ever felt like your pipeline is more reactive than it should be … this will feel very familiar.
