CTHINGS.CO is a finalist in the DCW Innovation Challenge, powered by ABB.

CTHINGS.CO will join global companies and industry-leaders in Washington, D.C. this April, as part of the Data Center World Innovation Challenge.

We are proud to announce that CTHINGS.CO has been selected as a finalist in the Data Center World Innovation Challenge, powered by ABB.

Out of a highly competitive global field, CTHINGS.CO is one of only four companies selected in the Networking & IT category, and among just 24 startups worldwide invited to participate in this prestigious challenge. This recognition highlights the strength of our technology and our vision for transforming complex infrastructure through intelligent, scalable solutions.

Showcasing Innovation on a Global Stage

As part of the Innovation Challenge, our team will travel to Washington, D.C. to participate in Data Center World 2026, April 20–23, where we will:

• Pitch live in front of a panel of industry-leading judges

• Demonstrate our Orchestra Technology Stack, showcasing how it enables real-time orchestration, observability, and optimization across complex, distributed environments

• Engage directly with decision-makers shaping the future of digital infrastructure

Our participation reflects not only the innovation behind Orchestra, but also its real-world impact in helping organizations operate smarter in an increasingly complex, AI-driven landscape.

Orchestra: Built for the Next Generation of Infrastructure

As infrastructure scales and becomes more interconnected-spanning IT, OT, edge, and cloud-traditional approaches to monitoring and control are no longer sufficient.

Orchestra addresses this challenge by delivering:

• Unified visibility across systems and environments
• Intelligent orchestration to streamline operations and improve performance
• Open, scalable architecture that adapts to evolving infrastructure needs
• Real-time insights and automation to accelerate decision-making and reduce operational risk
• Built-in security and compliance support, helping organizations maintain control, enforce policies, and meet regulatory requirements across complex environments

At the Innovation Challenge, we will demonstrate how Orchestra enables a shift from fragmented tools to a cohesive, orchestrated approach to infrastructure operations-without compromising on security or governance.

Meet Us at Data Center World 2026

In addition to the live pitch sessions, you can find us throughout the event:

• Innovation Alley – Stand L20: Experience Orchestra live and explore real-world use cases

• Networking sessions and receptions: Connect with our team and discuss your infrastructure challenges

We invite attendees to schedule a meeting with our team to learn how CTHINGS.CO can support your next phase of growth.

Looking Ahead

Being selected as a finalist is an important milestone. It reinforces our commitment to enabling smarter, more connected infrastructure at a time when innovation must go hand in hand with security, resilience, and compliance.

We look forward to representing our team, our partners, and our customers on this global stage, and to contributing to the next chapter of infrastructure innovation.
