As we bid farewell to another remarkable year, we would like to highlight some of the major events and feature releases we had in 2023.
Tradeshows
Our team has attended over 45 tradeshows in 2023, including the largest tradeshow in North America, CONEXPO. The show had over 2400 exhibitors from 133 countries at the Las Vegas Convention Center. We were thrilled to be able to host two happy hours from our booth and look forward to attending the next show in 2026!
Collaboration with Customers
In September, we were lucky enough to collaborate with the team from Middlesex in Orlando for a customer testimonial video project. Middlesex has been a customer with FleetWatcher's Materials Management Solution since 2018. In the video we speak with Vice President of Paving, Mike Iapaluccio, to discuss his leadership style and how he has utilized FleetWatcher with his team. To watch the full video, click here.
