Trendspek, a leading technology infrastructural software based in Sydney, Australia, has entered into a strategic partnership with Applus+ Pacific and Applus+ AMEA to develop advanced, AI-driven defect detection tailored for the region’s critical infrastructure. 

This collaboration combines Trendspek’s advanced software with the global expertise of Applus+ in Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) and certification services.

The partnership aims to deliver infrastructure owners and operators across the Middle East with more comprehensive, accurate assessments and the ability to monitor asset conditions over time—offering a level of insight previously unattainable.

The agreement was formalised during Abu Dhabi Finance Week and Taronga Group's delegation of seven technology companies, supported by the UAE Embassy in Australia, to deliver solutions to support the $1.68 trillion real asset development pipeline in the Gulf.
 

The partnership agreement was officially signed by Derek Feebrey, CEO of Trendspek, and Brian Dawes, Executive VP of Applus+ AMEA, in a signing ceremony witnessed by Nooh Al Hammadi, MPA and Elizabeth Wood at the UAE Embassy with The Hon Christopher Pyne. 

This collaboration further strengthens the commitment of both companies to advancing infrastructure monitoring and improving asset management strategies in key sectors across the Asia-Pacific and Middle Eastern markets. 

Derek Feebrey, Chief Executive Officer of Trendspek says: 

Derek Feebrey-1“This agreement marks a significant milestone in enhancing the safety, reliability, and longevity of critical infrastructure in the region. By combining our innovative technology with Applus+’s world-leading NDT and certification capabilities, we are bringing a new standard of defect detection and condition monitoring to the market.”
