We connect international technology providers with credible local delivery, and we support Iraqi private and public sector clients with access to world-class solutions.

About the Founder
Samir Al-Assadi is the Founder and Director of Intechstone. A Senior Electrical Engineer and Incorporated Engineer of the IET, he has built his career over 25 years delivering complex engineering programmes across the UK, Bahrain, and international markets.
Samir has managed and contributed to a wide range of infrastructure and technology projects that directly reflect Iraq's current development priorities. In the UK, he managed the design and installation planning for the addition of rapid EV charging units across more than 300 BP forecourt sites nationwide, one of the largest EV infrastructure upgrade programmes undertaken by a major oil company in the country. He has also delivered over 40 smart building and automation projects across the UK and Europe, managed major electrical upgrade works at data centre facilities in London, and served as Senior Electrical Project Manager on the $240 million Four Seasons Hotel development in Bahrain.
Beyond individual projects, Samir spent six years as Senior Programme Advisor to Bahrain's Ministry of Works, providing strategic advice across national infrastructure programmes covering highways, district cooling, electricity transmission and distribution, and major urban development schemes. This combination of technical delivery experience and government advisory work gives him a distinctive understanding of how large-scale infrastructure programmes are planned, procured, and executed in the Gulf region.
It is this depth and breadth of experience that Intechstone brings to Iraq's growing renewable energy and infrastructure market.
