Jean Souliere - Building A Smart School Bus
Jean's Story
- Your background is fairly unique where you didn’t start off in the space of smart city/vehicle technology. How did you go from studying philosophy, to becoming a sales leader, then building a logistics business and now starting BusPatrol?
- How would you compare and contrast the business models of Nuage, CV Logistics and Bus Patrol? Did you have to change the way you studied the business and customers?
- Conventional thinking teaches to go after large addressable markets. Smart bus technology doesn’t necessarily come to mind when you look into this. Why did you choose to work on this problem?
The Future of Smart Cities
- Assuming social distancing stays in place for the foreseeable future, what kind of opportunities do you anticipate for Bus Patrol?
- Smart cities have been a trend that’s been talked about for the past 5-10 years. The progress we’ve made so far leaves a lot to be desired. How do you see the evolution of smart cities?
- If you weren’t working on BusPatrol, what areas of safety technology would you be working on?
Background on Jean Souliere and BusPatrol
Jean Souliere, Chief Executive Officer of BusPatrol, is on a mission to bring safety to our communities and awareness to all residents across the country. After many years of working in the high-tech industry for companies such as NetSuite and Oracle, Jean decided to strike out on his own. He opened a high-tech business in transportation logistics. In an effort to expand his business he began to research other avenues for expansion. He discovered an opportunity when his research turned up evidence of neglect in transportation safety in our country’s’ school bus systems.
