Bridgestone just bought a company called Azuga that handles fleet management, so it can offer cloud-based solutions for real-time vehicle operations and data analytics. Paolo Ferrari, the President and CEO of Bridgestone Americas, spoke with us to share why it wanted to acquire Azuga and its recent investment in Kodiak Robotics which is developing Level 4 long-haul trucks.
