Episode description
Another great episode to share on The Leadership In Insurance Podcast today - I was joined by Rashid Galadanci to discuss all things AI, telematics and how him and the Driver Technologies Inc. team are seeking to democratise car safety
I met Rashid in New York back in spring, and have been looking forward to having him on the podcast ever since. A lot has happened since then, they raised, ( 🎉 in a round led by IA Capital Group and CT Innovations) grown, announced new products & partnerships and more..
I’ve included some of the highlights below but be sure to give the full conversation a listen..
🎙 We discuss entrepreneurship, where the drive to build this business comes from & the founder story of driver
🎙 We get into the challenges of road safety: rapidly changing technology, resistance to investing in tech and the average age of cars on the road 10+ years plus - how can we tackle this?
🎙 Rashid explains how over 50% of accidents are caused by a distracted or drowsy driver and how they are using AI to mitigate this risk
🎙 We discuss the cultural push backs to surveillance technology and how Rashid and the team seek to avoid the ‘big brother approach’
🎙 Finally, we discuss what’s next for Driver Technologies
Thank you again Rashid for joining me - I hope you enjoyed this episode as much as I did
