Eleco champions innovation as the sponsor of C-Tech Club Start-Up Village & 2026 Catalogue of Construction Technology at Digital Construction Week 2026
Eleco, a leading provider of software solutions and services for the built environment, is reaffirming its commitment to innovation and industry collaboration by sponsoring the C-Tech Club Start-Up Village and supporting the C-Tech Club Catalogue at Digital Construction Week (DCW) 2026. The event, taking place 3–4 June at ExCeL London, gathers the brightest minds and cutting-edge technologies shaping the future of construction, engineering, and architecture.
Empowering the next generation of construction technology
The C-Tech Club Start-Up Village is a focal point at DCW, spotlighting emerging companies and founders driving technological advancement in the construction sector. The zone provides a platform for start-ups to connect with industry leaders, investors, and peers. By championing these innovators, Eleco hopes to help foster an ecosystem that accelerates the adoption of new technologies and supports the digital future of the built environment.
As part of our commitment, Jonathan Hunter, CEO of Eleco, will join a panel on what drives successful exits in construction tech. This panel brings founders and acquirers to unpack how companies are positioned, valued and bought, and what it takes to turn a transaction into a genuinely successful integration.
Celebrating start-up excellence and industry progress
As the construction sector continues to evolve, partnerships like that between Eleco and the C-Tech Club are vital for nurturing talent, sharing knowledge, and driving meaningful progress across the industry. The C-Tech Club is a global community of 538 founders in 32 countries. It presents this information across 32 categories of technology – from Geotech scans to commissioning and digital handover software. It therefore represents a full taxonomy from which construction managers and project managers can choose the types of technology that are right for their projects.
A partnership built on shared values
Eleco’s sponsorship reflects its deep-rooted passion for construction technology and its evolution from traditional engineering to a software and technology-focused business. The company’s approach to innovation is underpinned by three core principles:
- Customer Collaboration: Working closely with a global customer base to solve unique challenges in the built environment.
- In-House Excellence: Investing in dedicated R&D teams and technical talent to develop tailored solutions, while offering expertise and support to customers and partners.
- Strategic Partnerships: Building trusted relationships across the industry, as exemplified by Eleco’s ongoing collaboration with the C-Tech Club.
Jonathan Hunter, CEO of Eleco, remarked in the C-Tech Club Catalogue, “Progress comes from organisations working in complementary ways, building on shared data, integrating across workflows and collectively raising the standard of delivery.
As construction increasingly adopts more industrialised, manufacturing-led approaches, that collaboration becomes an operational necessity rather than a strategic aspiration.
This is why Eleco continues to support the C-Tech Club. We are proud to work alongside founders and start-ups developing technologies that address real problems across the built environment. This is the third year we have supported both this Catalogue and the Start-up Village at Digital Construction Week, and it coincides with a period of structural change across the sector.
John Priestland, Founder of the C-Tech Club, added, “The challenge facing construction is not a lack of innovation, but creating the conditions in which innovation can succeed. This Catalogue showcases the breadth of technology now available to the industry, while the Start-Up Village highlights the founders building the future. We are delighted that Eleco continues to support both initiatives and help strengthen the wider construction technology ecosystem.”
Driving digital transformation at DCW
As part of Digital Construction Week, Eleco will also be demonstrating its market-leading software solutions for the built environment that span project planning, estimating, portfolio management, 4D & 5D BIM, data management and analytics including carbon analytics. Attendees can engage with Eleco’s team at stand D105 to explore how these tools support efficient operations, helping companies across the construction lifecycle embrace digital transformation.
