    Never in the history of the consumer technology industry has the dynamism and energy of its members counted more than in the past year and a half, when all the usual challenges of business were compounded by the COVID pandemic. Luckily, the industry is emerging in good health from these challenges — thanks in no small part to the contributions to its well-being from the roster of honorees in Dealerscope’s 2021 40 Under 40 awards. The individuals recognized this year were nominated by votes and supporting testimonials from their industry peers both within and outside their companies. The nominations were then reviewed by Dealerscope’s staff, and our honorees were selected. They were then asked to answer several profile questions to help our readers get to know them a bit better. We’re pleased to present their career histories and their remarks here, which include insights both about their individual roles at their jobs and about their views on the overall state of the tech industry and the directions in which it is headed.–Nancy Klosek
