DENSO Takes a Stake in Airbiquity to Advance Connected Vehicle Technology
- Investment will accelerate the development of over-the-air systems, a critical component for connected cars -

KARIYA, JAPAN, Mar 12, 2019 - (JCN Newswire) - DENSO, the world's second largest mobility supplier, has taken a $5M stake in Seattle-based Airbiquity Inc., a global leader in connected vehicle services and a pioneer in the development of automotive telematics technology. The investment will accelerate the development of over-the-air (OTA) systems for wirelessly updating automotive software from a remote location.

DENSO will accelerate the development of secure and highly reliable OTA systems in cooperation with Toyota Motor and Toyota Tsusho by harnessing Airbiquity's engineering capabilities and developmental strengthens and resources.

"DENSO envisions a future where people everywhere enjoy the freedom and convenience of mobility. That's why we've been actively and aggressively investing in and teaming up with industry-leading partners like Airbiquity to deliver safe and reliable automated driving technology," said Tony Cannestra, director of Corporate Ventures at DENSO. "Secure OTA systems that update and control vehicle functionality are a key component in tomorrow's connected car."
