“Receiving the Innovator of the Year award is both humbling and exhilarating. Innovation, to me, has always been about curiosity—about asking ‘what if?’ and daring to find answers where others see only obstacles. The journey to this stage began with a simple question: How can we make our vehicles smarter and safer? From that question, AutoSmart was born, and today, our AI-driven diagnostics tools are revolutionizing how we think about vehicle maintenance and safety.”

“This journey hasn’t been without its challenges. Innovating in an industry as established as automotive technology requires a willingness to challenge the status quo and to face the inevitable resistance that comes with change. But my philosophy has always been that if you’re not willing to risk the usual, you will have to settle for the ordinary. I’ve dedicated myself to pushing those boundaries, to exploring the uncharted, and to creating solutions that not only address today’s needs but also anticipate tomorrow’s challenges.”

“This award is a recognition of that effort, and it serves as a powerful reminder that the path of innovation is one of continuous learning, adapting, and evolving. I’m honored to be recognized among such esteemed peers and am excited about the future innovations that AutoSmart will bring to the automotive world. I thank the jury and everyone involved in this recognition for believing in the power of innovation and for inspiring us to keep pushing forward.”
