Barry Einsig will join the Eroad board as an independent director, based in Pennsylvania, US, effective immediately.
Eroad has announced the appointment of Barry Einsig to the board as a North American-based independent director.
Located in Pennsylvania, Einsig brings considerable transport knowledge of the North American market as well as global automated and connected vehicle expertise.
Einsig is currently a principal at CAVita, providing consulting services to cities, governments and companies on smart cities, transport mobility and connected/automated vehicle systems. He built and implemented the global strategy for Cisco across all modes of transport and mobility.
He has held directorships of The Infrastructure Security Partnership; been vice-chair of American Public Transport Association R&T; chair of Intelligent Transportation Society of America ATMS; was the chair and founding member of Joint Council on Transit Wireless Communications; and has advised Singapore’s Ministry of Transportation on their Highly automated vehicle program.
In addition, Einsig has reviewed work undertaken by the Transportation Research Board and created patent-approved technology used in Public Safety Networks.
Eroad chairman Graham Stuart said “Barry’s command of the North American transport market, combined with his extensive and global experience in connected vehicles and smart transport networks, rounds out the board’s expertise that is successfully guiding Eroad’s continued growth.”
North America is now an established market for Eroad, contributing strongly to ebitda as outlined in the company’s recent financial half-year results. A North American based director maintains the emphasis on that market, important for the company’s strong growth strategy.
The board has determined Einsig is an independent director for the purposes of the NZX Listing Rules.
