“I am grateful to be recognized alongside an outstanding cohort of software industry executives and this honor wouldn’t be possible without my amazing colleagues here at Spireon who strive every day to meet and exceed the expectations of our automotive, finance and commercial fleet customers,” said Weiss, “While 2020 has served up challenges to many industry sectors, I’m incredibly proud of the Spireon team’s continued focus and momentum in delivering connected vehicle technology to increase safety and productivity, boost profits and protect assets.”
