(MENAFN- PR Newswire) "We are here to not only build technology, but to be a society-changing company," said Xiaodi Hou, Founder and CEO of Bot Auto. "To do that, we need to see the world in a bigger way from a range of perspectives. These experts forming our Strategic Advisory Board will be instrumental in helping us continue our rapid development. Autonomous Trucking is a perfect example of the American spirit in action by driving innovation in the way goods are transported."

The Bot Auto Strategic Advisory Board includes:

  • Lt. General (Ret.) Michael D. Barbero
    General Barbero's military leadership, including three combat tours in Iraq commanding large US and NATO organizations, combined with his current business development activities across Europe and the Middle East, provides Bot Auto with both logistics expertise and strategic international connections.
  • Thomas Feddo
    Feddo has served extensively in the U.S. Government in various national security roles, most recently as the first Assistant Secretary for Investment Security at the U.S. Department of the Treasury. He currently advises startup companies and global firms on complex regulatory matters. His experience will help ensure that Bot Auto is best positioned to navigate a fast-moving regulatory environment.
  • Danny Lilley
