BusinessCloud can reveal its TransportTech 50 innovation ranking for 2022. 

Readers of the online technology publication and an independent judging panel have together decided the 50 companies blazing a technology trail in the transportation sector.

The TransportTech 50   supported by digital transformation experts Sputnik Digital celebrates businesses of all sizes creating original tech for mobility, transportation, wayfinding and logistics.

Newcastle-based Nomad Digital, a provider of passenger, fleet management and monitoring solutions to the transport industry, tops the ranking.

In second spot is Humanising Autonomy, developer of AI models to predict pedestrian behaviour, ahead of fellow London firm What3words, which allows navigation to any corner of the globe with just three words.

Karshare and Transreport, also based in the capital, complete the top five.

Also featuring is Zap-Map (Bristol), the UK’s leading app and digital platform for electric vehicle drivers to search for available charge points, plan longer electric journeys, pay for charging and share updates with other EV drivers.
