South African mobility startup WhereIsMyTransport has closed down after failing to secure the necessary funding to continue operating. Formed in 2016, WhereIsMyTransport is a big data platform for sustainable mobility in emerging markets, which connects and collects data and integrates this information on its open data platform. All-in-all we numbered 200 employees, supported by thousands of gig-mappers, enabling transit data in over 50 cities across four continents. Our products served millions of consumers, and supported customers to reach tens of millions of transit users,” de Vries said. Thank you to the investors who backed us along the way – without you our work would not have been possible.
