TDCX Group acquires SUPA to supercharge AI-enablement platform Chemin

Acquisition strengthens Chemin's capabilities in complex AI data services amid global demand surge SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 20 June 2025 - TDCX Group, a leading provider of digital customer experience (CX) and growth services for global enterprises, today announced the acquisition of SUPA, a cutting-edge data labeling and annotation platform known for its agile, gig-powered delivery model. SUPA will be integrated into Chemin, TDCX Group's recently launched AI enablement subsidiary, to address the rising complexity of AI development and meet surging global demand for elite-level data services. As artificial intelligence systems evolve rapidly — from large language models (LLMs) to autonomous agents — the nature of data-related work has grown more specialized and cognitively demanding. What was once simple tagging has shifted toward intricate data interpretation, nuanced prompt engineering, synthetic data validation, and multi-modal reasoning tasks increasingly performed by individuals with advanced academic training, including PhDs, engineers, linguists, and ethicists. Mr. Laurent Junique, Chief Executive Officer and Founder, TDCX Group, said, "The future of customer experience is AI-powered, and AI itself runs on increasingly complex, curated data. SUPA brings us the right capabilities and talent frameworks to fuel that future. By embedding SUPA into Chemin, we're doubling down on our ability to support enterprise and frontier AI labs with world-class data operations." Mr. Mark Koh, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of SUPA, said, "The future of AI is all about the quality of its decisions. At SUPA, we've built a platform that refines raw data into the fuel for smarter, more reliable AI systems. It's about injecting judgment and deep domain expertise at critical points in the data lifecycle. TDCX Group gives us the global platform to scale our model of precision and agility while keeping quality uncompromised." Ms. Lianne Dehaye, Senior Vice President, and newly appointed Head of Chemin, said, "SUPA immediately enhances our ability to deliver complex data pipelines, whether it's fine-tuning models with domain-specific annotations or deploying PhD-level reviewers for critical edge-case scenarios. We enable intelligent task orchestration that scales reliably, maximizes throughput, and ensures high-quality outputs at every stage of the pipeline." Chemin, launched earlier this year, serves as a next-generation platform for AI enablement, offering services such as data collection, annotation, model evaluation, red-teaming, and prompt optimization. With SUPA's tech stack and elite talent network now integrated, Chemin is positioned to serve clients developing foundational models, enterprise AI copilots, and safety-critical systems. This strategic move places TDCX Group at the center of the AI enablement, a sector forecasted to become a multi-billion-dollar global market. As AI adoption accelerates among Fortune 500 companies, small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), to digitally native direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands, Chemin, now fortified with SUPA's deep expertise, aims to be a critical enabler of safe, scalable, and sophisticated AI. TDCX Group will continue investing in an end-to-end AI services portfolio, anchored by robust CX infrastructure, gig-economy flexibility, and now, a deep bench of highly qualified human-in-the-loop talent.

From lab to market: ATRC entities turn breakthrough research into real-world technologies

20 June 2025 02:27 SARA ALZAABI (ABU DHABI)Fuelling the UAE's push for innovation and a knowledge-based future are local labs and institutions that transform cutting-edge research into homegrown Advanced Technology Research Council's (ATRC) key entities - TII, ASPIRE, and SteerAI - are translating advanced science into real-world solutions that serve communities and national priorities, from AI to robotics and automation. "We are helping the UAE shift from adopting technologies to building them - delivering real economic and strategic value," said Dr. Najwa Aaraj, CEO of TII, in an interview with Aletihad . "Whether it is AI, quantum, robotics, or advanced materials, we are working on scalable, secure systems that support industrial resilience and self-reliance."Radar systems, edge AI tools, and impact-responsive body armour are some of the technologies that are moving "steadily from lab to market", supported by TII's commercialisation partner VentureOne, Dr. Aaraj ProjectsTII has been working with major government entities to advance next-generation technologies across sectors, from aerial systems and quantum-secure space communications to AI-enabled healthcare."Our robotics centre worked with the GCAA on autonomous aerial corridors. In quantum, we are partnering with the UAE Space Agency on secure communications for space infrastructure," Dr. Aaraj said."In AI, we enable edge-based models for healthcare and government, while in autonomous robotics, we are advancing GPS-free navigation for logistics and inspections."TII also invests in local talent. "Programmes like NexTech embed top Emirati STEM students in international universities and bring them back to our research centres to build the next generation of UAE scientists," she with Real-World ImpactATRC's ASPIRE also seeks to "bridge the gap between breakthrough research and tangible, real-world impact", turning lab ideas into deployable tech across key sectors. Speaking to Aletihad , Stephane Timpano, CEO of ASPIRE and A2RL, said: "From tackling carbon storage monitoring to shaping air corridors for autonomous mobility, our work ensures that emerging technologies meet real industrial and societal needs." ASPIRE focuses on "dual-use, high-impact technologies", including AI, robotics, and advanced materials."We are proving high-performance systems can be designed and built in the UAE," Timpano said, highlighting projects like A2RL's EAV-24 autonomous lab-to-market process starts by identifying real-world challenges in priority sectors, he said."Then, we invite global and local innovators to solve (these challenges) through competitive, milestone-driven programmes. Once a solution proves viable, we help de-risk and scale it."The goal, Timpano added, is to "forge new collaborations and show how the UAE is not just buying innovation but building it"."Everything we do is designed to grow the UAE's intellectual capital," he SolutionsSteerAI, on the other hand, seeks to drive the UAE's shift from tech importer to innovator through sovereign autonomous mobility Michael Sonderby, Acting CEO of SteerAI, told Aletihad that the company is helping drive the UAE's shift from tech importer to innovator through sovereign autonomous mobility solutions."SteerAI is a direct product of the UAE's ambition to become a global leader in advanced manufacturing and AI innovation," said Michael Sonderby, Acting CEO of an instance, its autonomous GPS-free system, CoreX, was developed at the Technology Innovation Institute (TII) and is now being deployed with partners like A2RL and Milrem Robotics."CoreX allows our vehicles to navigate unmapped terrain in real time without relying on GPS or maps," Sonderby said. "It has huge implications for defence, ISR, search and rescue, and more." SteerAI's CoreX system is designed to keep humans out of danger zones, he said. "It does not tire, get distracted, or miss signals. We detect and avoid obstacles faster than human drivers." By supporting the country's autonomous tech ecosystem, SteerAI's "goal is to contribute to the UAE's vision of becoming a global tech hub", Sonderby said.
