    • #89 A Big Bet on an Ex-Trucker

      For years, Pierre Laguerre worked as a truck driver. During those years he saw one of the biggest inefficiencies in the industry up-close: getting available drivers matched with trucks ready to get on the road. Barely a year after launch, his business, Fleeting, is growing fast. But he’ll have to convince the investors he has the technical savvy to make the company grow even faster. And he’ll need to tackle another problem: how to adapt to an industry transformed by COVID-19.

      Today's investors are Maia Bittner, Elizabeth Yin, Sheel Mohnot and Charles Hudson.
