Uber Fitrite Freight has appointed today Uber and Tsala CEO Rebecca Tenucci as its new executive head, to replace the company’s founder and CEO of the company Lior Ron.
After this step, Ron will move from the CEO to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, and also takes a new role in the operations role in Waabi, a artificial intelligence company (AI) and the independent truck transport company in which Uber is a major investor.
Over the past nine years under the leadership of Lior Ron, Uber Freight has grown from an emerging company within Uber to a global logistical platform with more than $ 20 billion in FUM and products including Uber Freight TMS, Exchang, Powerloop and Bearned AI that was recently launched.
In Tesla, Tinuccci led the global shipping organization, and led in Uber a global electrical strategy. According to Uber Freight, these roles have shown their ability to organize change at the level of industry, a skill that applies directly to helping trucks to adopt new digital and operational models in logistical services.
“Uber shipment was born that I believe that logistical services can be radically transformed through technology,” Ron said in a statement. “After a decade, we have made tremendous progress towards that vision, building a smart logistical company from the end of the industry. Rebecca is a proven pioneer that brings strong operational intersections, sympathy for customers, and thinking about the platform.”
