United States. Michael Seeman has been named vice president of sales for UVeye, a provider of a fully automated suite of vehicle inspection systems.
Seeman had been senior vice president of OEM and national account relations at CarNow, Inc. in Atlanta. Prior to CarNow, he served as vice president of customer success and enterprise sales at CDK Global in Hoffman Estates, Illinois.
Amir Hever, CEO and co-founder of UVeye, said Seeman will be responsible for managing and expanding the company's partnerships with automakers, dealer groups, fleet customers and used car auctions in North America.
Hever noted that UVeye recently completed a Series D investment round led by Hanaco VC, a New York and Tel Aviv-based venture capital firm with $1.5 billion in assets under management. UVeye's major investors now include GM Ventures, CarMax, W.R. Berkley Corporation, F.I.T. Ventures L.P. and Volvo, as well as several Israeli institutional investors.
"Michael Seeman is a welcome addition to our team," Hever added. "We're installing hundreds of systems at dealerships across the U.S. and working with some of the nation's largest automakers, like General Motors. We are well on our way to achieving our initial goal of revolutionizing and standardizing the way the automotive industry detects vehicle damage and mechanical problems."
UVeye currently has facilities in Israel, Japan, Germany and the United States. Since its founding in 2016, the company has raised more than $200 million in investment capital and formed strategic partnerships with numerous automakers, dealership groups and used car auctions.
Headquartered in Teaneck, New Jersey and Tel Aviv, Israel, UVeye provides vehicle inspection systems based on advanced artificial intelligence, computer vision, and machine learning technologies for the automotive and homeland security industries.
