DETROIT, Feb. 4, 2026 \u2013 Urban Science\u00ae, a global automotive consultancy and technology firm, announced today its board of directors, led by founder Jim Anderson, has appointed Tom Longo to the role of president and CEO. In this role, Longo, a 38-year Urban Scientist, will expand his leadership role in guiding the firm\u2019s strategy and delivering scalable solutions that help automakers and dealers, and the AdTech firms that support them, achieve clarity and cohesion in an increasingly complex and competitive market.<\/p>\n

Anderson retains full ownership of the company and has transitioned solely to the advisory role of chairman; he will continue to work closely with Longo to ensure a seamless leadership transition that positions the company, and its team members and clients, for continued growth and success.<\/p>\n
