Barry J. Glick has more than 30 years experience in the mapping, location
technology and navigation industry. In 1994, he was the founding CEO of
GeoSystems Global Corporation and led the company to its initial venture capital
funding and the development of its breakthrough MapQuest.com consumer website,
as well as its B2B successes with Fortune 500 companies. As a result of the
company's early success in Internet mapping, GeoSystems went public in 1999 and
was acquired by AOL/Time Warner in 2000. Glick later became Chairman and CEO of
Webraska Mobile Technologies, Inc. headquartered in France, and a pioneer in
off-board navigation and location-based services. Webraska was later sold to
Sanef, part of the Abertis Group, the number one transport and telecom
infrastructure management operator in Europe.
Glick then served as Vice President of Internet, Mobile and Media Products for
NAVTEQ, a global provider of maps, traffic and location data enabling
navigation, location-based services and mobile advertising. NAVTEQ was acquired
by Nokia in 2008.
As CEO of ALK Barry was responsible for the sale of ALK to Trimble in 2013.
Currently Glick serves as President of PTV America, Inc. and as a Partner or
Board Member at GeoCodex, LLC; Location, Inc.; Carillon Ventures, LLC; and
Spatial Justice Resources, Inc.
Barry holds a Ph.D. in Geography from the State University of New York at
Buffalo and a Master's degree from Cornell University.
