Laat ik er maar eentje maken. Beetje onduidelijkheid over de deal die T2 heeft met VW. Dit was al op 29 okt bekend. Benieuwd wanneer T2 dit officieel gaat melden

Het bericht over de deal met VW is nu ineens verwijderd van de site van TomTom! Opmerkelijk!

AMSTERDAM (AFN) - TomTom heeft geen meerjarige overeenkomst gesloten met Volkswagen inzake TomTom Traffic. Dat zei een woordvoerder van de navigatiedienstverlener maandag tegen AFN. Een Duitstalig persbericht van die strekking dat enige tijd op de website van het bedrijf stond, had daar ,,niet mogen staan''.
Volgens de verklaring van 29 oktober zou TomTom zijn verkeersinformatie aan minstens 2 miljoen wagens van de grootste autobouwer van Europa ter beschikking stellen. De deal zou in het vierde kwartaal ingaan. In het persbericht wordt ook topman Harold Goddijn aangehaald.
De verklaring is inmiddels van de website verwijderd. De inhoud ,,is niet iets dat we kunnen bevestigen'', aldus het bedrijf.

Te vroeg naar buiten gekomen of in zijn geheel niet waar?

En vanaf 2060 zijn alle verkeersborden en stoplichten verdwenen en is zelf sturen verboden!

Verkoop Jeep stijgt spectaculair. Sinds kort met TomTom-inside!

www.iex.nl/Nieuws/ANP_ANP-031114-196/...
Nuance: geldt voorlopig wel alleen voor de Cherokee. Maar...

"The Jeep brand has set a record every month this year, fueled by the compact Cherokee, which has become the company’s top-selling model."

Wie weet stoomt Chrysler Amerika (straks samen met VW :) :) :) !!!) wel klaar voor meer TomTom inside auto-verkopen.

De koers van TomTom blijft vandaag prima liggen ondanks de dalende beurzen. Inhaalslag met vrijdag, want toen steeg de koers amper bij flink stijgende beurzen.

10 % onder laatste top....met dit bericht had koers moeten stijgen tot 7

Helaas weet de helft van de aandeelhouders voorkennis en lopen "wij" achter feiten aan

Dat tt geen openheid moet geven is stuitend....hoezo eerlijke handel?

Sleepless in Seattle, Again
by rlanctot13-9-2014
Nearly a year after its much-touted IPO failed to launch, INRIX has announced that the Porsche family, majority shareholders for Volkswagen AG, are investing $55M for a 10% stake – putting INRIX’s market value at approximately $550M. That value is about half the purported $1B valuation that would have resulted from the company’s original planned IPO.

The investment is a proud moment for INRIX which is battling for survival in a traffic market fought over by Google/Waze, Nokia/HERE and TomTom along with a host of other regional traffic data information providers and various startups. Ever since Waze scored about $1B from Google, entrepreneurs have been battling to find the next Waze-like solution along with Waze-like valuations.

In that respect, the INRIX investment by Porsche though inducing a huge sigh of relief at the Seattle-based company, did not inspire the wider investment community.

The hard truth is that although traffic data may be, in my estimation, the single most important telematics application, the car makers who hold the keys to the market see traffic data as nothing much more than a source of cost. The problem results from the poor quality of early traffic data feeds and the inability of car makers to charge for the same traffic data for which they had to pay – with the exception of SiriusXM and Ford, both of which have subscription-based traffic services.

Google simultaneously put a high value on traffic with the acquisition of Waze and zeroed out that value by giving the service it away. TomTom, INRIX and HERE have soldiered on, enhancing their data feeds and refining their algorithms and securing strategic relationships and contracts.

The potential upside lies in the proliferation of embedded connections in cars. Connected cars are expected to produce valuable probe data and other potential traffic information enhancements capable of delivering forward leaps in performance and customer interest.

The INRIX funding arrives in the heat of a swirl of market speculation regarding acquisitions and partnerships. Samsung was recently rumored to have proffered a $7B bid for Nuance – an acquisition that would have solidified Samsung’s presence in the elusive automotive market.

The Samsung rumor revealed the two-tier nature of the M&A world. As an acquisition candidate you are either a $1B-or-less target (Hughes, Agero, Octo) or a $10B target (Nuance). Of course, there is a third class of <$100M deals (Cobra, Tweddle Connect).

The more fanciful rumors around INRIX had the company either getting a strategic investment from Samsung or getting probe data from Samsung (handsets). Just as in the case of Nuance, an INRIX relationship would have burnished Samsung’s automotive cred, but Samsung clearly faces bigger existential challenges beyond automotive credibility as it experiences pressure from emerging Asian handset rivals.

INRIX may be disappointed in a $550M valuation relative to its original $1B target. The good news is the investment buys the company more time to reinforce its traffic products and services portfolio as it seeks to expand the scope of its service delivery proposition.

Early INRIX investors who were bought out in the Porsche deal are probably sleeping well now. But given the increasing competitive pressure to deliver a Waze-like exit there will be no rest for INRIX employees.

Hey, BMW, It's My Data, Too
by rlanctot3-11-2014
Automotive News reports today that Volkswagen Group and Mercedes-Benz are calling on fellow automakers to establish separate platforms for data on vehicle use to avoid handing over sensitive customer information to Google.

The report (http://tinyurl.com/lmstxuo - "Mercedes, VW to put brakes on Google's in-car data inroads") echoes similar sentiments expressed by VW CEO Martin Winterkorn at the CeBIT event earlier this year when he warned of the car becoming a “Datenkrake” or data octopus.

In his latest comments, Winterkorn says: "We seek connection to Google's data systems but we still want to be the masters of our own cars. Potential conflict arises around making data available."

What Volkswagen and Mercedes are concerned about is the inclination of rivals, such as General Motors, to share vehicle and customer data with Google. The reason for the concern is that Google is seeking to shake down the industry by charging steep licensing fees for use of its connectivity, content and application assets if auto makers won’t share data. The extortion boils down to: “Share your data with us and the licensing fee goes away.”

I’ve got news for the auto makers and Google: the data cat is out of the bag. Nearly every non-electric car in the world has a data port for emissions testing which is also used for diagnostics. EVs have no emissions, hence no data port. The availability of that data port, or OBDII, means anyone potentially has access to the vehicle data as long as they can tap into that port.

So-called right-to-repair laws in the U.S. require auto makers to allow access to that port and to the vehicle diagnostic codes. Similar laws exist or are being pursued elsewhere in the world.

But access to vehicle data is getting more interesting with the proliferation of wireless connections to cars via embedded modems (OnStar, BMW Assist, Mercedes mbrace, etc.) or connected smartphones (Ford SYNC, Toyota Entune, etc.). And, most recently, the emergence of aftermarket OBDII devices has introduced the prospect of direct consumer and third-party access to vehicle data.

Access to or availability of data does not necessarily connote ownership. GM OnStar executives often say at industry events: “Our customers own their data.” But as I have said and written many times, owning the data and having access to the data are two different things.

I had my BMW serviced this week. Every time I visit my dealer the technician places my keyfob into a reader that downloads data from the vehicle. In the past I have asked to see the output from this device, which translates to five pages of information. I have also previously obtained a copy of the document.

When I requested a copy of the document at the end of my service visit this week the technician said he could not provide it as it was confidential company information. I told the technician that the vehicle was mine and, therefore, the data was mine and that I’d like a copy of the printout after which ensued the classic standoff. He could show me the report but he could not give me the report.

So, here is where we stand. The car companies have substantial amounts of information about their cars and their customers and about how their customers use their cars. The car companies share some of that information with consumers and some of that information with the government. But they really don’t want to share any data with any entity if they can possibly avoid it.

VW’s Winterkorn complained of the car becoming a “datenkrake” as part of an effort to suggest that VW was going to protect the consumer’s information against evil and intrusive government representatives or marketers. The reality is that VW and every other car company is already sharing customer and vehicle information with marketing partners of their choosing and are only pretending to hide behind a shield of customer privacy to protect their own interests.

It is time for the car makers to come clean. Vehicle data, which rightly belongs to the consumer, should be made available to the consumer via Web portals and/or smartphone applications.

If Zubie and Audiovox and Moj.io and Automatic and CarMD and Automile and Carvoyant and Helpten and Eliocity and High Mobility and Metromile and Baseline Telematics and State Farm and Verizon can tap into my vehicle data port and deliver diagnostic insights to a Web portal, then car makers ought to do the same directly. In fact, both Mercedes and VW offer dealer-installed OBDII devices in Europe for the very purpose.

The liberation of vehicle data will actually be empowering for dealers, consumers and OEMs. VW and Mercedes are right to be concerned about Google gaining access to their data because Google has more experience with taking advantage of access to customer information.

Google turns ownership of customer information into ownership of the customer. Google’s Chinese doppleganger, Alibaba, understands this as well. Both see the massive monetary rewards to be had from guiding vehicle ownership, purchasing and servicing decisions. Car companies are too twisted in knots over their conflicted dealer relationships to capitalize on their inside track in the customer relationship.

The first step in fixing things will be greater transparency. Car makers need to share more vehicle data with their customers (and NOT just monthly vehicle health reports!). Consumers want to see drive-by-drive data. Consumers want real-time notifications of problems. And consumers want the information delivered in an easy-to-access manner.

Next time I visit my BMW dealer I am going to be asking for my vehicle data printout. But maybe BMW will take the hint and make that information available online directly so I don’t have to harass my dealer. How about it, BMW? After all, it’s my data too

Mooi gesproken die bovenste zin, en zo is het ook precies. Dit gebeurt in meerdere branches. ING wil niet dat hun klanten ervoor kiezen om via een API toegang te hebben tot hun eigen informatie, omdat dat zogenaamd de veiligheid in gevaar brengt. Maar het gaat er gewoon om dat ING niet wil dat andere partijen gaan zitten data-minen, want dat willen ze zelluf doen.

Zie dit artikel, interessant thema
