Layer 10 Announces Strategic Restructuring, Launching Kaige Technology Solutions 

Denver, CO – 8/1/24 – Layer 10, a leader in seamlessly integrating cutting-edge technology into the built environment, is excited to announce a significant restructuring aimed at enhancing service delivery and client satisfaction. Founded in 2016 by Ken Wilkinson and Josh Herald, Layer 10 has successfully completed dozens of client projects across 10 states and the UK, delivering innovative solutions that optimize functionality and user experience in various built environments. 

With a unique design-first, human-centric, product-agnostic approach, Layer 10 has earned a reputation for transforming spaces across a diverse range of build types, including office, hospitality, multifamily, and more. Our journey began with DaVita’s ‘Tower 2’ office at Union Station, setting the stage for our unique approach to technology integration. As a testament to our value, DaVita remains an active client to this day. 

Introducing Kaige Technology Solutions 

We are thrilled to announce the launch of Kaige Technology Solutions, a new venture dedicated to providing specialized technology implementation and managed services. Kaige will focus on delivering end-to-end solutions, including development, implementation, and ongoing support of clients’ critical technology systems. Led by Josh Herald, a founding member of Layer 10 with extensive industry experience, Kaige is committed to ensuring seamless integration and long-term reliability for each project, helping clients achieve optimal performance and functionality in their spaces. 

Seamless Transition for Clients 

From a client perspective, little will change. Layer 10 will continue to excel in strategic design and consulting services, acting as the technology architect to ensure our clients’ visions are effectively translated into actionable plans. Layer 10’s role will involve guiding projects from conception through to detailed design, leveraging our expertise to align technology solutions with the overall project goals. Meanwhile, Kaige Technology Solutions will handle the implementation and managed services aspects, effectively acting as the technology general contractor. Kaige will be responsible for executing the technology strategies we developed at Layer 10, ensuring seamless integration and providing ongoing support to maintain system performance. This partnership ensures that as projects transition from design through build and onto support, clients can expect the same level of excellence and continuity that Layer 10 has always delivered. By splitting these roles across our partnership, we continue to provide comprehensive, end-to-end technology solutions that enhance the functionality and user experience of every space. 

“Layer 10 has always been about pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in integrating technology into physical spaces. This restructuring allows us to sharpen our focus and deliver even more specialized expertise across the different phases of our projects,” said Ken Wilkinson, CEO of Layer 10. “We are confident that this move will bring enhanced value to our clients and further strengthen our service offerings.” 

About Layer 10 

Layer 10 specializes in harmoniously integrating cutting-edge technology into physical spaces to maximize both functionality and user experience. Our approach leads with design, centers on the end-user, and is product-agnostic, meaning we lead with the experience, not the technology. These guiding principles have been instrumental in delivering transformative solutions across various sectors and regions. 

About Kaige Technology Solutions 

At Kaige Technology Solutions, we believe every building has its own unique story. Just as construction tailors spaces to fit their users, we tailor technology to each project’s distinct needs. We understand that technology is more than a set of systems; it’s a critical part of your building’s functionality and user experience. Our approach is straightforward: we partner with you to develop and implement technology solutions specific to your project. Independent of build type, we customize everything to suit your specific environment and objectives. But our commitment doesn’t end when the build does. At Kaige, we establish long-term relationships with our clients, staying engaged to ensure everything runs smoothly, adapting and evolving as your building’s needs change over time.
