India naturally became a hub due to its rich tech talent pool.

Today, we are a significant team of innovators working on solutions for fleet management, condition monitoring, and e-commerce for our customers and dealers.

This new office celebrates our team’s exceptional work and invites India’s talent to join us in driving innovation forward.”
