Bradley Kellas

Mr Kellas is the founder of Property Vault International Pty Ltd and a decorated former Detective from Victoria Police with 21 years' experience. During his policing career, he experienced in organised crime, corporate fraud, kidnapping, blackmail, extortion, product contamination, and stolen property investigations. After policing, Brad applied his entrepreneurial and analytical skills to global financial markets, developing a proprietary trading strategy that he managed for five years at an investment firm. In 2015, Brad recognised the potential of combining social media with a custom-built platform and specialist support service to counter bike theft and property crime. He founded BikeVAULT (the forerunner to PropertyVAULT), which has grown into Australia's platform to combat asset theft in Australia, with recoveries exceeding $3 million. Understanding the critical role of both physical and digital identification in combatting theft and fraud, Brad aligned with DataDot Technology Ltd, the global leader in microdot and forensic identification technologies. In 2019, as the shareholder, he initiated a Extraordinary General Meeting that reset the company's strategic direction. Since his appointment as Managing Director & CEO of DataDot Technology, Brad has overseen its expansion into digital platforms and insurance services, including the growth of PropertyVAULT Insurance Services, positioning the Group at the forefront of asset protection, recovery, and insurance innovation.
