Early in our company’s development, we were fortunate to have a breadth of strategic and financial expertise at our disposal through our advisory board. Now that FireFly is entering larger markets, we have begun the expansion of our Board of Directors. In addition to company co-founders Steve Aposhian, Andrew Limpert, and Matt Aposhian, who currently serve on the board, our first independent member is Liz Hocker.
“I’m delighted to join the FireFly Automatix Board of Directors. FireFly’s sustainable approach to agriculture and environmental maintenance is revolutionizing the industry. I look forward to applying my years of experience in business operations and capital markets to help drive FireFly’s growth into its next attainable realm.”
– Liz Hocker
Ms. Hocker has positively impacted hundreds of companies through the operations and people-oriented initiatives her teams have delivered. As former Nasdaq Managing Director of the Southwest United States, she worked with more than 135 companies on successful new listings, representing more than $117 billion in market value, including some of the highest profile IPOs in the world.
Our CEO, Andrew Limpert said, “For many years I have experienced firsthand her drive and determination to create value for the companies she’s listed and supported via Nasdaq over her distinguished career.”
“Liz has expertise in governance and Board structure and is well-connected and respected in the capital markets,” Limpert continued. “As the first member of our independent board, Liz will be instrumental in FireFly’s continuing growth as a leader in the automated, Autonomous and Electric vehicle agriculture space.”
