VICTORIAVILLE, QC, Feb. 22, 2021 /CNW Telbec/ - GTX, a global leader in cellular-enabled remote data processing technology and artificial intelligence, today announced that Alex Thibault will be joining the company as Chief Operating Officer.

As GTX's portfolio expands, Alex will play a key role in executing its plan and continuing to scale the company's best-in-class platform.
