Madrid, Spain, March 18th, 2026 – Quest Global, the largest private independent pure-play engineering services company, today announced a strategic alliance with Gladtolink, a Spainbased enterprise software company recognized for its ultrarapid process digitization and automation suite. Together, the organizations aim to address the urgent digital, industrial and technological challenges facing the Spanish defense ecosystem as it advances toward its 2030 modernization goals.
The partnership brings together Quest Global’s extensive domain knowledge and engineering capability with Gladtolink’s powerful lowcode platform to transform how defense organizations digitize critical processes, secure sensitive data, integrate legacy systems, and modernize their operations at unprecedented speed. The Spanish defense sector is currently navigating a decisive moment. European funds and increased national spending have created a unique but timelimited window to scale industrial capacity, strengthen autonomy in key technologies, and accelerate digital adoption before technological obsolescence and global competition limit future opportunities.
Through this collaboration, Quest Global will lead customer engagement, the identification and design of digital processes, solution engineering, and platform customization. Gladtolink will provide its full technology suite, licenses, technical and business training, and support throughout solution deployment. Together, the companies aim to provide a comprehensive and accelerated blueprint for digital transformation that allows Spain’s defense organizations to strengthen their competitiveness, operational efficiency and technological sovereignty in a fraction of the time traditionally required.
Commenting on the partnership, Luis Javier Codón, General Manager of Quest Global Spain, said “This partnership with Gladtolink allows us to amplify our capabilities, combining Quest Global’s deep industry knowledge and digital expertise with a cuttingedge product that enables us to solve our customers’ challenges better and faster.”
Echoing this sentiment, Jaume Martínez, CFO of Gladtolink, stated, “This union not only adds capabilities, but significantly amplifies the impact of our solutions in a volatile security environment. Through this collaboration, the alliance strengthens our ability to support Spain’s defense sector as it accelerates its digital and operational evolution.”
This alliance positions Quest Global and Gladtolink as strategic partners for Spain’s defense organizations, enabling them to modernize critical processes, improve operational resilience, and meet the demands of rising global workloads, evolving ESG expectations, talent shortages, and an increasingly unstable geopolitical landscape. With speed now defining relevance in the defense sector, the partnership provides the technological and operational momentum required for Spanish companies to remain competitive and lead Europe’s next generation of defense programs.
