Our take
Mojio collaborates with mobile networks and automotive companies to harness and gather valuable data from "connected cars", encompassing information on location, vehicle diagnostics, and driving behavior. This data proves invaluable for manufacturers, insurers, car dealers, and healthcare providers, creating a dynamic ecosystem that leverages insights derived from connected vehicles.
In a landscape where the monetization of car data is poised for substantial growth, Mojio stands out as a key player. The prevalence of connected cars is steadily rising, with approximately 200M already on the roads, and projections indicating a potential doubling or even tripling in the near future.
Despite competition from players like Cubic Telecom and Zubie, Mojio's strong funding positions the company for expansion. This financial support will fuel increased hiring and technological development, enabling Mojio to meet the evolving demands of its diverse customer base and further solidify its standing in the thriving connected car industry.
