Otonomo: “Data is not a second-degree citizen anymore”

“Otonomo has today contracts with 12 car manufacturers…. about 40 million cars and we are really the biggest center for automotive and mobility data on the planet,” explained Otonomo Co-founder and CEO Ben Volkow. Speaking about the importance of data, Volkow shared that his five-and-a-half-year-old company collects information that can help a variety of different sectors.

“The amount of data is just growing because there are more connected cars, because cars have more sensors, and because data is not a second-degree citizen anymore. It’s a prime citizen. It’s the center stage and we see new vehicles which are moving sensors on wheels… I believe that the more data we have, the more value this data can bring, the more the merrier.”
