Two highly successful UK-based vehicle-tracking firms, Cybit and Masternaut, are merging to create a ‘pan-European telematics company.’
The business name Masternaut will be used for the new entity, which will consist of a 500-strong workforce, a customer base of 10,000 and a presence in 32 countries.
