Industrial IQ Bootcamp: $20M Oceanfront Masterpiece

Our first Industrial IQ Bootcamp was an experiment. We threw out the conventional sales playbook and focused on just two things: delivering overwhelming value and getting the right people in the room.

The results spoke for themselves—which is why we knew we had to do it again.

But for our second bootcamp, we’re not just re-running a successful formula. We’re elevating it. We asked ourselves: How can we create an even more powerful environment for collaboration and breakthrough ideas?

The answer was to build an experience where the venue itself becomes a case study.

The New Stage

Instead of a sterile hotel conference room, we’re hosting our 2nd Industrial IQ Bootcamp inside a $20M oceanfront masterpiece in Newport Beach, CA. This isn’t about luxury—it’s about mindset.

The venue is the latest project from our featured speaker, Alan Schnur. This stunning transformation took a 1950s architectural gem and reimagined it as a modern waterfront estate. It’s a living example of the very principles we teach: having the vision to see a deal’s potential and the strategic execution to bring it to life.

We believe that an environment embodying excellence is the perfect catalyst for a weekend dedicated to building it.

Access and Action

A great venue means nothing without the right people and actionable content. We’ve kept the group intentionally small—capped at 30 vetted investors—to ensure this is a roll-up-your-sleeves workshop, not a passive seminar.

You’ll have direct access to candid conversations with active operators, including:

  • Saul Zenkevicius (Me!): Founder of Z Equity Group, $100M+ Portfolio Operator 
  • Shea Lewis: Managing Partner at Z Equity and Small Bay Industrial Specialist
  • Alan Schnur: Visionary Investor, Author, and responsible for over $200M in transactions

But we’re obsessed with closing the gap between learning and doing. Our curriculum is built on four tactical pillars: Acquisitions, Ground-Up Development, Leasing, and Operations.

To ensure you can execute on this playbook immediately, every participant receives complimentary 3-month access to our Industrial IQ Software. You won’t just leave with ideas—you’ll leave with the tools to implement them.

Conclusion

The core principles from our first bootcamp remain unchanged: radical transparency, a curated group of high-caliber operators, and a focus on collaborative problem-solving.

What’s different is the level of immersion and the immediate implementation tools we provide. This is where breakthrough ideas meet breakthrough deals.

This is an exclusive event for serious operators ready to take their business to the next level. Seats are limited and we vet every applicant to ensure the right mix of experience and ambition.
