Appointment of Chief Executive Officer
Wireless sensing, thinking and acting solutions and platforms company Spectur Limited (ASX: SP3) (“Spectur” or the
“Company”) is pleased to advise that Anthony Schmidt has been appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company, effective 31 March 2025.
The appointment follows an interim period of 3 months, whereby Anthony was appointed as Interim CEO to give
him the opportunity to perform in the role and demonstrate his suitability for permanent appointment.
Anthony is an accomplished senior executive with significant experience in start-up / scale-up camera and AI
businesses. He joined the Spectur business as General Manager Process & Operations in January 2024, having
previously spent 2 years with Sensen (ASX:SEN) as their General Manager of Global Operations. His role with Sensen
came about through the sale of a previous technology business he co-founded in 2013 (Scancam Industries – itself a
camera / AI business) having been purchased by Sensen.
Spectur Board Chair Darren Cooper commented: “The Board is delighted to appoint Anthony to the Spectur CEO
role. Over the course of 2024, and more recently in his three-month Interim CEO appointment, he has shown himself
to be an insightful and capable leader. Importantly to the Board, Anthony has a keen eye for cost control, revenue
improvement & business development, and the Board has tasked him to conclude the process of bringing the
business to a cashflow positive model as quickly as possible”.
