During his earnings call with financial analysts yesterday, Dinesh Paliwal, the CEO of Harman had the following comment on the HERE Acquisition by BMW, Audi and Daimler (who are all three customers of Harman):
“Actually we are quite pleased with it because if you were to ask me, what if Apple or Google bought the HERE versus consortium of three HARMAN's existing customers, I would always prefer what just happen. And also I read through the press release and I also got a personnel letter from the executive of HERE, what they're saying
this consortium is going to be managed at arm's length, so HERE will get funding and strategic direction so that they can expedite online services what they do today and also invest more into accurate digital data for the maps.“
