BOSTON & SINGAPORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Heidi Wyle, PhD., co-Founder and CEO of Venti Technologies, has been recognized as one of Forbes' 50 Over 50 Innovation awardees, highlighting her contributions to the field of AI and automation. This prestigious award attests to Dr. Wyle’s visionary leadership and the groundbreaking progress that Venti - a world leader in AI-powered Autonomous Vehicle (AV) logistics - is demonstrating.

Revolutionizing the Industry with AI-Powered Solutions

Venti was selected for its creation of AI-powered, self-driving vehicle systems tailored for moving goods in logistics environments such as ports, intermodal rail, airports, warehouses, and factories. Launched in 2018 from Dr. Wyle's kitchen table, Venti has expanded into a 140-person team with offices in Boston and Singapore.
