Finalist teams work with Trimble experts at the Westminster kickoff to test and refine integrations ahead of Demo Day.
Westminster, Colorado, August 16, 2025
The Trimble 0–60 Challenge selected 16 finalists from startups and developer teams building integrations for architecture, engineering, construction and asset lifecycle workflows. Finalists attended a two-day kickoff at Trimble’s Westminster headquarters to test integrations with hands-on support from Trimble experts, then will spend 12 weeks refining solutions for deeper platform integration. The program culminates with Demo Day at the Trimble Dimensions user conference in Las Vegas, where teams will present finished integrations. Top prizes include cash awards and all participants can publish integrations on the Trimble Marketplace. Separately, Trimble issued a security patch for an asset management product.
What happened: Trimble has named 16 companies as finalists in its annual Trimble 0–60 Challenge, an accelerator program aimed at identifying and supporting startups, entrepreneurs and developers building tools for the architecture, engineering, construction and asset lifecycle management sectors. Finalists began a two-day kickoff at Trimble’s Westminster, Colorado headquarters and will spend the next 12 weeks refining integrations that work with Trimble’s open technology ecosystem. The program will close with a Demo Day at the Trimble Dimensions user conference in Las Vegas on November 10–12, 2025.
The Trimble 0–60 Challenge is organized in collaboration with Trimble Ventures, the company’s corporate venture fund. Trimble Ventures provides capital and industry expertise intended to help early-stage companies refine technology, improve go-to-market strategies and accelerate innovation across construction, transportation, geospatial and related sectors. Program organizers emphasize that smaller startups often lack market reach and established industry connections, and the accelerator is designed to bridge that gap by supplying tools, technical access and strategic support.
At the Westminster kickoff, finalists received direct technical help from Trimble experts to test and advance integrations. The hands-on sessions focused on improving workflow interoperability with Trimble platforms and on practical steps to make integrations discoverable and deployable through the Trimble Marketplace.
Demo Day during Trimble Dimensions will showcase the finalists to conference attendees and industry stakeholders. Cash awards will be presented to the top three finishers. Regardless of placement, participating teams can offer their integrations on the Trimble Marketplace, which serves as a primary entry point to Trimble’s developer ecosystem where customers can find verified integrations that extend Trimble solutions.
Trimble relocated its corporate headquarters to Westminster, Colorado in October 2022, making Westminster its largest U.S. employment center. The Westminster campus, built using advanced construction technologies, spans more than 240,000 square feet on 15 acres and includes LEED Gold and Silver certified buildings, an on-site solar installation effort and an outdoor technology development and testing center. The company maintains a significant presence in Sunnyvale, California, designated as a Silicon Valley center for innovation and operations with responsibilities for engineering and other core functions.
Trimble has continued to expand through targeted acquisitions and platform investments in recent years, building connections across commonly used applications and data sources. Prior platform deals and acquisitions have been positioned to reduce manual processes and improve digital workflows for contractors and asset operators. Executives said the company looks for firms that complement existing offerings and address operational pain points.
In other technology news related to product security, a Trimble asset management product used by local governments, utilities and airports was subject to a reported vulnerability that prompted a company-issued patch. The advisory warned that some on-premises deployments may have had overprivileged Internet Information Services identity permissions and advised against running IIS with local or domain level administrative privileges on any site. The vulnerability was added to a known exploited vulnerabilities catalog managed by a U.S. cybersecurity agency. Independent researchers reported that threat actors used a range of tools in related activity, including offensive frameworks and privilege escalation utilities.
Separately, a global predictive procurement platform aligned with a major management consulting firm to support supply chain and procurement practices, signaling continued crossover between procurement tech and advisory services.
Over the coming 12 weeks, the 16 finalist teams will continue to refine their integrations, focusing on solving practical workflow issues and unlocking new opportunities through deeper interoperability with Trimble platforms. The process is intended to accelerate commercial readiness and visibility ahead of the Las Vegas showcase in November.
