IRVINE, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — January 31, 2019 — Digital Map Products Inc. (DMP), a leading provider of location intelligence solutions for business and government agencies, announced today the appointment of Dave Cozzens to its board of directors. Cozzens will leverage his deep industry experience to provide consultative guidance around DMP’s strategic growth and positioning initiatives and will serve as a valuable resource as DMP pursues its mission to embed location technology into everyday workflows for businesses and governments across North America.

Prior to Novell, Cozzens was the vice president of consulting at Cambridge Technology Partners (CTP) before its acquisition by Novell. He also launched and led CTP’s Strategy Management Consulting practices in the U.S. and Europe.
