The company emphasized that its global expansion supports innovation and customer success across markets.

He also mentioned that Ireland, France, and Italy would follow by 2026, with other European markets under consideration. He highlighted that as road safety becomes an increasingly pressing issue worldwide, Netradyne’s AI solutions are gaining relevance globally. He further noted that the company represents deep tech innovation, with its R\&D centre in India playing a crucial role in delivering global impact.

Netradyne, which also operates in Canada, Mexico, Germany, the UK, Belgium, Netherlands, Australia, and New Zealand, became a unicorn earlier this year after raising \$90 million in a Series D funding round at a valuation of \$1.34 billion. Nedungadi explained that the company is strategically expanding its presence, often employing remote staff to avoid heavy infrastructure costs. India remains a key R\&D hub, hosting over 650 employees out of a 850-strong global workforce.

Additionally, Netradyne has partnered with Eminent Transit, a corporate travel and employee transport solutions firm. The collaboration integrates Netradyne's “Driver•i” technology to enhance safety, efficiency, and passenger comfort. Eminent Transit's CEO, Ravi Kiran, noted that the solution also provides critical safety for women commuting at night.
