About Geoffrey Ruppert
I’ve built my career at the intersection of technology, operations, and growth, with experience spanning both early-stage and late-stage startups. Throughout that journey, I’ve developed a strong passion for innovation and a consultative approach centered on helping clients align technology investments with their broader business objectives.Today, I’m with Tekion, where I draw on my operational experience and background in SaaS and AI to help automotive retailers modernize their businesses and drive meaningful transformation.My connection to the automotive industry is both professional and personal. My family’s legacy in the business began with my grandfather and great uncle, who owned Ruppert Motors, three Lincoln-Mercury dealerships in Los Angeles County from the 1940s through the 1980s. My cousin, Chris Ruppert led the Accounting Department at Longo Automotive Group for two decades. Continuing that tradition, my identical twin brother, Phil Ruppert, serves as Partner and VP of Operations at Browning Automotive Group in Cerritos, California.
