Veniam

Acquired by Nexar in August 2022. No longer an independent company. This Lisbon-founded technology company develops networking solutions for the burgeoning Internet of Moving Things. The startup's core offering is a mesh networking platform that establishes seamless WiFi connections between vehicles, public transport systems, and urban infrastructure. This technology effectively creates a mobile data fabric, extending connectivity and providing ubiquitous access across diverse urban environments.

A primary goal is to transform moving vehicles into dynamic data collection and distribution points. This innovative approach has been successfully implemented in Porto, Portugal, creating the world's first city-wide vehicular mesh network. Beyond urban deployments, the technology is also used in commercial ports and logistics hubs globally, illustrating its versatility and scalability. By enabling vehicles to communicate and share data, Veniam supports a range of smart city applications, including improved traffic management, enhanced public safety, optimised logistics, and the delivery of real-time information to citizens. Ultimately, the solutions developed by Veniam contribute to more efficient, responsive, and connected urban ecosystems across Europe and beyond.
