UK-based autonomous vehicle software developer Oxbotica has undergone a rebranding and is now known as Oxa. This strategic move signifies the company’s progression into the next phase of its growth, as it aims to expand its presence in North America and Europe.
Oxa specializes in providing businesses with comprehensive tools to deploy autonomy in their operations safely, securely, and efficiently. Its offerings encompass the software that drives the vehicles, proprietary generative AI tools that accelerate deployment through Oxa MetaDriver, and cloud-based solutions for fleet management with Oxa Hub.
The versatility of Oxa’s platform allows it to cater to various industries, including shared passenger transport, logistics, goods delivery, agriculture, energy, and mining. By leveraging its expertise, Oxa aims to empower organizations across these sectors to embrace the benefits of autonomous technology.
In a recent funding round, Oxa successfully raised $140 million in Series C funding, enabling the company to deploy its operating system for autonomy to customers worldwide. This financial milestone will further facilitate the adoption of Oxa’s solutions by a global clientele.
Oxa has also made notable strides in forging partnerships to drive its autonomous vision forward. One significant collaboration is with Goggo Network, which intends to incorporate Oxa’s self-driving technology into its fleet of on-road autonomous electric vehicles throughout Europe. Additionally, Oxa has joined forces with Google Cloud to bring its vision for self-driving to life, emphasizing its commitment to innovation through strategic alliances.
Gavin Jackson, CEO at Oxa, expressed his enthusiasm about this pivotal moment for the company, stating, “I am thrilled today to begin the next chapter of our business as Oxa. At a time when organizations are grappling with driver shortages, soaring operational costs, service limitations, and net-zero targets, we possess a unique opportunity in the market. With our solutions, we can deliver the transformative benefits of autonomy to businesses right now.”
Founded eight years ago, Oxa has steadily grown into a global team of AI and Robotics experts spanning the UK, Canada, and North America. The company’s dedication to advancing autonomous technology has propelled its success and positioned it as a prominent player in the industry.
As Oxa embarks on this new phase of expansion and innovation, its rebranding reflects its commitment to revolutionizing the way businesses incorporate autonomy into their operations. With its comprehensive suite of solutions and strategic partnerships, Oxa is well-positioned to shape the future of autonomous vehicles and their impact across industries worldwide.
