Dubai-based VAD Technologies has signed a distribution agreement with WEKA to bring its NeuralMesh software to the Middle East. The partnership aims to support AI and data modernisation for enterprises and government bodies across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, optimising GPU performance and workload efficiency.
As organizations across the Middle East invest in AI infrastructure at scale, demand continues to grow for data infrastructure that keeps GPUs from sitting idle and improves AI workload efficiency. The partnership pairs WEKA’s technology with VAD Technologies’ regional channel ecosystem and market expertise to help partners capture that opportunity and support their customers’ AI and data modernization initiatives.
Under the agreement, VAD Technologies’ partner network will deliver NeuralMesh to enterprises and government organizations building and scaling AI, machine learning, and other accelerated compute workloads across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments. The companies plan to co-invest in partner enablement, technical training, workshops, and joint go-to-market programs across key industry sectors including government, financial services, healthcare, energy, and telecommunications.
“AI is driving a fundamental shift in how organizations manage and use data to drive value,” said Mario M. Veljovic, general manager at VAD Technologies. “The WEKA NeuralMesh platform delivers the scalable performance and economics our customers need to support modern AI workloads. We’re excited to be working with WEKA to expand AI adoption in the Middle East.”
NeuralMesh extends high-performance data storage and GPU memory for AI workloads, giving enterprises, AI cloud providers, and AI builders a unified foundation for training, inference, and agentic workloads. VAD Technology partners can now leverage WEKA’s solutions to help enterprises and government organizations accelerate AI initiatives, modernize data infrastructure, and get more from their GPU and AI workload investments.
“The Middle East is standing up AI infrastructure faster than almost any region in the world. The difference between ambition and results will come down to whether the data layer can keep all those GPUs fed,” said Gareth Whiting, vice president of EMEA at WEKA. “VAD Technologies knows this market and the partners building in it. Together, we’re making sure the region’s AI investments perform from day one.”
