Since 1983, INIT has evolved from a university spin-off to the world market leader for ITS solutions in public transportation. Everything we do is based on our credo to be the most innovative, reliable and sustainable supplier. Our roots are in Karlsruhe, Germany. But we are at home all over the world – with more than 30 subsidiaries and offices around the globe.

Our competitive edge: INIT is the worldwide only supplier that covers the complete range of tasks which public transport companies face to provide their service. With our uniquely integrated system of hard- and software solutions, we offer maximum assistance in their complex work.

In good company

More than 1100 transport providers rely on our support to manage their daily tasks:

planning and dispatching
ticketing and fare management
operations control and real-time passenger information
analyzing and optimizing

Moreover, transport companies can also master all requirements of electromobility and set up a single sign-on mobility platform using our integrated solutions. A robust package of operational services completes the INIT offer.

More than 40 years of experience have given us an in-depth understanding of our customer’s requirements. This allows us to customize and implement our solutions extremely successfully. Combined with the aim to make new technologies quickly available for public transport, this provides the basis for INIT’s exceptional performance.

I am very proud of the development INIT has taken until now. Within 40 years, we have grown to one of the most successful companies in our industry. Feedback from our customers and financial reports speak for themselves - but it's the achievements of our dedicated team which have created our prosperous history and will guide us to a promising future.
