A new board will be formed for the combined company, with PowerFleet Chairman Michael Brodsky taking on the role of chairman. Steve Towe and Mix Chairman Ian Jacobs will also be part of the board.

The merger of PowerFleet and Mix Telematics will result in one of the largest providers of mobile asset Internet of Things (IoT) and software as a service (SaaS).
