Our story

Verizon Connect born

In 2016, Verizon brought together industry leaders—Fleetmatics, Telogis, and Networkfleet—to form Verizon Connect. By fusing small-business agility, enterprise OEM partnerships, and robust infrastructure, we built a global market leader powered by 1,200 specialists across 10 countries. 

But fleet intelligence is about more than tracking—it’s about the people behind the wheel and the families waiting for them. Backed by an intellectual property portfolio of 85 patents in fleet AI and the reliability of the Verizon network, we help bridge the gap between your drivers, your workplace, and your community.

Our future

Where we are headed

As we look to the future, we aren't just preparing for change—we are driving it through a commitment to continued innovation and AI-powered intelligence. The fleet industry stands at the threshold of a new era, where the rise of autonomous technology and big data will transform every aspect of daily operations. 

We are expanding our ecosystem beyond the vehicle to empower the essential worker and the work being done, turning massive streams of data into actionable insights that enhance safety, productivity, and sustainability.
