Charlotte, North Carolina — InfraSight Software Corporation, a provider of compute economy risk management platforms, today announced the appointment of Charles Portz as Chairman of the Board and Chief Financial Officer. Portz, a significant investor and advisor, joined the InfraSight board earlier this year. In his new role, he will succeed co-founder and CEO Tim Martin as Chairman and will lead the company's financial strategy and governance, marking the company's official exit from stealth mode.
Background and Responsibilities of the New Role
Portz previously served as founding CFO and COO of a hedge fund, which he helped grow from startup stage to over $500 million in assets under management. He brings nearly two decades of institutional finance and operations management experience to InfraSight and will lead the company's next phase of development.
CEO's Assessment
"Charles combines integrity, creativity, AI-native thinking, and institutional-grade professionalism—a unique combination," said Martin. "The opportunity before us is enormous—this is an emerging category projected to grow 22x by 2030, reaching a $450 million serviceable market. Charles is one of the most exceptional leaders I have worked with. I have full confidence in his ability to steward our capital, operations, and governance to seize this first-mover advantage."
Portz on Compute Assetization
"Compute has become a strategic asset class," said Portz. "InfraSight enables C-suite executives and board members to quantify, price, and hedge compute with capital-markets-grade precision. I have witnessed InfraSight develop its patent-protected Workload Compute Unit (WCU) into the standard that executives rely on to govern the compute economy. The inflection point has arrived; my goal is to position the team to accelerate with confidence."
Market Timing: Why Compute Has Become a Board-Level Risk
The surge in AI demand, extreme volatility in GPU prices, constraints on power supply, and supply chain fragility have transformed compute from a mere expense line item into board-level key performance indicator risk. InfraSight's patent-protected WCU provides a universal metric and contractual standard that enables executives to proactively manage such risks with transparency, control, and a complete audit trail.
