Power of Ablaze Public Webinar

Join Jessica Kentch for a Special Webinar on the Power of Ablaze Collective’s Vision and Impact

Title: Power of Ablaze: Harnessing Data & Empowering CPA Founders

Date: Friday November 8th
Time: 12-12:30 MST

Register: Via the Form Below

Overview:

Get an inside look at Ablaze Collective and discover how we’re changing the game for CPA firms (and their clients) with our innovative approach to data mining and practice management. Join Jessica Kentch, founding partner of Ablaze Collective, for an in-depth webinar where we’ll discuss what drives us, how we operate, and the transformative solutions we bring to the accounting and fintech industries.

What to Expect:

In this session, Jessica will share Ablaze Collective’s story—why it was built by founders, for founders—and how our core values of Data, Founders, Diversity, and Storytelling shape everything we do. You’ll get a high-level overview of our unique approach to leveraging data and analytics in cloud accounting systems, powered by our proprietary DataStory model. This tool unlocks the full potential of data ‘hidden’ in your Quickbooks and Xero APIs, allowing firms to customize and optimize their client portfolios with ease.

Key Topics:

  • Our Story: Hear how Ablaze Collective was inspired by the lack of robust data tools for CPA firms needing multi- entity consolidated reporting, and how Jessica’s journey from Intuit to founding an analytics company has fuelled our mission to give firms control over their own data.

  • What We Do: Learn about our proprietary QBO and Xero API data mining solutions and how they enable CPA firms to extract and visualize ‘hidden’ data, making powerful insights accessible for firms of all sizes.

  • Why We Do It: Jessica will delve into Ablaze’s commitment to empowering founders and professionals with tools that are usually reserved for larger firms, creating a more level playing field for CPA practices everywhere.

Who Should Attend:

This webinar is designed for CPAs, financial consultants, tech enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the intersection of fintech and data analytics. Whether you’re looking to enhance your firm’s data strategy, are curious about cutting-edge API solutions, or want to learn about entrepreneurship in the fintech space, this session will be valuable.

Ablaze App Launch Celebration

**SOLD OUT & LOCATION CHANGE**--Join us on June 22nd at 7pm at National on 10th in Calgary for the grand unveiling of the Ablaze DataStore-y app community! Due to unforseen events with Calgary's water crisis, Stephen ave is under heavy construction on June 22nd making travel nearly impossible. Sponsors would not be able to access the venue easily and would have to set up booths on Friday. Half of the sponsors are from Edmonton and there is now a massive hockey playoff game for them on Friday (#GoOilers!). So..... we are moving the location to National on 10th! We have a series of long tables reserved, and we will be there all night, so come on by! We believe we have refunded everyone who pre-paid. If we missed refunding you, please email jessica@ablazecollective.com. Thank you to the Pioneer for being SO accommodating and amazing with allowing us to reschedule. We are looking to book the next event in September after Techstars in YYC!
