Automated driving and beyond

TTTech Auto was founded in 2018 with the participation of Audi, Infineon, Samsung and TTTech Computertechnik to build a global, safe vehicle software platform for automated and autonomous driving. In 2022, the company raised USD 285 million (EUR 250 million) from Aptiv and Audi in its latest funding round. This brought TTTech Auto's total valuation to more than USD 1 billion, confirming its strong position amid a growing number of auto tech unicorns

TTTech Auto has a long history in automated driving and functional safety. A spin-off of TTTech, TTTech Auto's technological history dates back to 1998, when TTTech was founded. Over the next 20 years, TTTech shaped the legacy of TTTech Auto to become an independent technology leader in its field.

Today, at TTTech Auto's headquarters in Vienna, Austria, and more than 10 locations across Europe, the U.S.A. and Asia, 1,200 employees work with leading car manufacturers on their software-defined vehicle, ADAS and autonomous driving programs. The company has acquired and invested in technology companies in France, Spain, Turkey, China and Central and Eastern Europe.
