MetroTech Net

MetroTech Net is a software-analytics company, focused on the intersection of the Smarter City and Connected Car/Autonomous Vehicle.

MetroTech Net ultimate goal is to create a data publishing business for real time traffic data (think Waze done from the network infrastructure side instead of the mobile device side). The investment thesis is that there is an opportunity to build upon an existing infrastructure build-out (video traffic management systems) in such a way that the company locks in an enormous amount of valuable data at a low cost (or at a possible profit, see mention of initial business model below) and then is able to monetize this data and some level of analytics in multiple verticals, including transportation, shipping/trucking, transit management, driverless cars, etc.
