VivaCity develops artificial intelligence sensors that monitor traffic and transport patterns to help local authorities improve road safety and network efficiency.
VivaCity has secured £7m in funding from ENV, Foresight Group, and Gresham House Ventures to accelerate its international expansion and broaden its product range. The transport technology scaleup uses artificial intelligence sensors to gather detailed traffic data for urban authorities.
The capital arrives as the company pursues an expansion into North America, including an ongoing pilot project with the New York City Department of Transportation. Management also plans to introduce new products focused on sustainable transport, road safety, and network optimisation.
The investment builds on a period of sustained growth for the London-based firm, which reports increasing customer renewals and a rapidly expanding global sensor network.
