Lytx, a leading company in fleet safety management, recently announced the appointment of Chris Cabrera as its new CEO.
Cabrera’s previous experience in executive leadership and artificial intelligence made him an obvious candidate for the role. As the former Founder and CEO of Xactly, Cabrera’s experience is both thorough and relevant.
Cabrera is taking over for the Interim CEO Andy Eckert who is now joining Lytx’s Board of Directors as a chairman.
Lytx’s reputation for upholding operational efficiency and enhancing driver safety isn’t changing under Carbera’s leadership. The company plans to continue its innovations in machine vision and artificial intelligence.
Chris has more than three decades worth of experience in SaaS experience in both private and public companies, recognized by USC as “Alumni Entrepreneur of the Year,” by The Software Report as a “Top CEO of 2020,” and was one of Business Intelligence Group’s “Executives of the Year” in 2021.
Chis’ company called Xactly began as a startup back in 2005 before transferring to a public company upon its success of over 40% combined revenue growth and profit margin. Xactly also won over 20 “best place to work” awards.
Xactly is an AI-powered platform dedicated to revenue intelligence and sales performance.
Before his appointment with Lytx, Cabrera served as the Interim CEO at Provarity AI, a platform driven by transforming how enterprise software companies manage presales engineering and the POC lifecycle.
