A new study by PTOLEMUS Consulting Group finds that 12 of the top 17 B2B mobility platform providers in the world have their headquarters in Europe. These software suppliers have diverse backgrounds in road operation or technology but are all helped by a favourable environment and numerous city initiatives in Europe.

Frederic Bruneteau, PTOLEMUS’ Managing Director, stated: “While India just launched a vertically integrated national MaaS scheme, mobtechs are proposing a different model that relies on open software platforms for everybody to use. They are giving mobility operators an alternative to the inevitable dogfights between those who will eat (integrate) and those who will be eaten (integrated). This report sheds light on the specialist players that compete alongside government initiatives and giants such as Google and Uber”.

The Mobility Platform Suppliers handbook is the first to identify and appraise MaaS software suppliers and to clarify a very complex market. It will help cities, Public Transport Operators and mobility service providers choose the optimal model and deliver seamless mobility experiences.

The report maps the MaaS value chain and stakeholders. It also establishes the 6 levels of integration needed to deliver a complete MaaS solution. It includes an assessment of 17 key mobility platform suppliers, detailing their key clients, services, investors and case studies.

The handbook unpacks the MaaS ecosystem, stakeholders and architecture, covering:

  • The necessary building blocks for a complete mobility platform
  • The levels of MaaS integration
  • The main players in each part of the MaaS value chain
  • The top mobility platform providers

The study features:

  • 150 pages of analysis of the complex ecosystem powering mobility-as-a-service,
  • 17 MaaS platform suppliers assessed
  • High level architecture of shared mobility platforms
  • An independent ranking of the top technology providers in the MaaS market.

Enterprise AI Hits the Wall: NTT DATA Research Reveals Growing Privacy and Sovereignty Barriers14.5.2026 15:00:00 EEST | Press release

NTT DATA, a global leader in AI, digital business and technology services, today released new research showing that enterprise AI is outgrowing the architecture and infrastructure beneath it as data privacy and sovereignty requirements tighten. The research finds a widening split between enterprises that are redesigning AI for control, locality and security, and organizations still layering AI into environments that were not built to support these requirements. For years, enterprise architecture moved data across systems, clouds, applications and borders with increasing speed and efficiency. AI is exposing the limits of that model. Sensitive data must be protected, workloads must run inside defined jurisdictions, and models must be governed under tighter controls. Data cannot always move with the speed and fluidity many AI systems expect, making jurisdiction a core architectural constraint. As a result, private and sovereign AI have become critical considerations. NTT DATA’s 2026 Globa
