VisionTrack appoints Ben Pickard as CEO

VisionTrack, the leading AI video telematics and connected fleet data specialist, part of Markerstudy Group, has today announced the appointment of Ben Pickard as Chief Executive Officer, replacing former CEO Simon Marsh who has left the business by mutual consent.  This follows a restructure of VisionTrack to facilitate the increased demand of their digital platform.

Markerstudy Group CEO Kevin Spencer said, “We are really excited to endorse our commitment to developing this multi-award winning, cutting-edge organisation. The new team and platform are well-positioned to take the company to the next stage. I would like to congratulate Ben, and thank Simon for his commitment to the growth of the business and passion for road safety.

Speaking of his appointment, Ben Pickard said, “I relish the challenge of taking over from Simon and carrying on the good work. Embracing the latest advances in machine learning and computer vision and knowing we are making a difference to the safety of all road users is what gets me out of bed in the morning! Technology is at the heart of the VisionTrack platform and success, and I am committed to ensuring we remain a market leader in this sector, transforming commercial fleet safety with our sophisticated industry-leading IoT platform, Autonomise.ai, and AI video telematics solutions”.

VisionTrack partners with vehicle operators to dramatically reduce road deaths and injuries. The company is targeting more efficient risk management, whilst supporting their road safety strategy. They estimate that their technology reduces insurance costs by an average of £2,000 per claim detected.
