Geotab has become the latest company, and the “first telematics specialist” to sign-up to ICFM’s Corporate Investor Programme.

Geotab, has joined at Affiliate Investor level, which enables the organisation to participate in ICFM events and gain access to the organisation’s resources.

The company said that joining ICFM as a Corporate Investor was the next logical step as it continued to provide fleet managers with access to vehicle data, driver behaviour and information on industry best practices around compliance, safety and environmental awareness.

By identifying industry trends and supporting the development of new skills through education and training programmes, Geotab acknowledged that ICFM would benefit its customers by providing industry knowledge and resources on business-critical topics.

Geotab’s European vice president Edward Kulperger (pictured) said: “As an industry-leading developer of fleet management technologies and vehicle generated data, we recognise our role and the role of the data in improving driver safety and protecting the environment.

“Geotab technology helps our clients and partners to better protect their drivers and build a ‘green’ economy in the UK and around the world.

“We are proud to join ICFM and look forward to contributing to discussions on health, safety and sustainability.

"We are excited to share our experience of how telematics technology can solve the day-to-day challenges of fleet management and benefit the wider industry.”

ICFM sales director Peter Eldridge said: “We are delighted that another well-known fleet industry supplier in Geotab, has recognised the value that ICFM can deliver through the Corporate Investor Programme and joined at Affiliate level.

“We hope that many other businesses will clearly see the value for money benefits of membership and the training and learning opportunities available and then enrol their employees in the various courses and attend our events, whether that be the ICFM’s annual conference or its Masterclasses tackling key fleet decision-maker issues.

“Investment in ICFM adds credibility and value to businesses and their employees and provides an invaluable network of contacts and benefits.”
