Embark founders honoured by US business group
Two former Waterloo Engineering students who launched a self-driving trucking company that is now poised to go public with an estimated valuation of more than US $5 billion have been honoured by a national business group in the United States.
Embark Trucks, which was founded by second-year mechatronics engineering classmates Alex Rodrigues and Brandon Moak, recently received one of eight 2021 business achievement awards from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
